Abstract

Çocukların sağlığını tüm boyutlarıyla olumsuz yönde etkileyen cinsel istismar, acil önleme stratejilerinin uygulanmasını gerektiren global bir sorundur. Bu derlemenin amacı çocuk cinsel istismarını önlemede okul öncesi dönemden itibaren uygulanmaya başlanması gereken okul temelli çocuk cinsel istismarı önleme programlarının önemini ortaya koymaktır. Okul temelli cinsel istismarı önleme programları, çocuklara cinsel istismar hakkında bilgi verme, potansiyel istismar olaylarından kaçınma ve kişisel güvenlik becerileri kazandırmaya odaklanır. Literatürde cinsel istismarın önlenmesinde okul temelli cinsel istismarı önleme programlarının çocukların cinsel istismar ile ilgili kavramları ve kendini koruma becerileri konusundaki bilgilerini artırmadaki etkinliği kanıtlanmıştır. Ülkemizde uygulanmamasına karşın gelişmiş ülkelerde erken çocukluk döneminden başlayarak okul temelli cinsel istismarı önleme programları uygulanmakta ve çocukların cinsel istismara karşı uyanık, bilinçli ve donanımlı olmaları hedeflenmektedir. Bu programlar çoğunlukla Amerika, Kanada, İngiltere, İrlanda ve Avustralya’da deneysel çalışmalar ile değerlendirilmektedir. Son zamanlarda okul temelli programlar; Kore, Tayvan ve Çin’de değerlendirilmiştir. Okul temelli cinsel istismarı önleme programlarının ortak temaları; bedeni tanıma, uygun ve uygun olmayan dokunmayı tanıma, iyi ve kötü sırlar arasındaki farkı öğrenme, sır saklamama, riskli durumlarda “hayır” diyebilme, ortamdan ayrılabilme ve olayı güven duyduğu birine anlatmadır. Çocuk istismarının önlenmesinde okul temelli cinsel istismarı önleme programlarının etkinliği kanıtlanmasına rağmen Ülkemizde kullanılmadığı, bu alanda yapılan araştırmaların yetersiz olduğu ve hemşirelerin konuya ilişkin yapacakları araştırmaların sayısının ve niteliğinin artmasının önemine dikkat çekilmiştir.

The purpose of this review is to reveal the importance of school-based child sexual abuse prevention programs, which should be implemented as of preschool age in preventing child sexual abuse. School-based sexual abuse prevention programs focus on providing children with information about sexual abuse, avoiding potential abuse and providing personal safety skills. In the literature, the effectiveness of school-based sexual abuse prevention programs in preventing sexual abuse has been proven in increasing children's knowledge about the concepts of sexual abuse and self-protection skills. Although not implemented in our country, school-based sexual abuse prevention programs are implemented in developed countries starting from early childhood, and children are aimed to be alert, conscious and equipped against sexual abuse. These programs are mostly evaluated with experimental studies in the USA, Canada, England, Ireland and Australia. Recently, school-based programs; It has been evaluated in Korea, Taiwan and China.
