When Burma became a democracy, many of the NGOs working along the Thai-Burma border moved to Burma with the expectation that funding would be more readily available. With humanitarian funding drying up along the border, and additional strains on nonprofits to support populations on the ground in the midst of COVID, many child protection programs such as safe houses and prevention programs have been abandoned, leaving this vulnerable population even more exposed than before and with fewer resources available to help them. There has been an uptick in domestic abuse, exploitation, neglect, sexual assault, and child sex trafficking. With Mae Sot now at the east end of a new 850-mile trans- Asia highway linking India with Thailand, and several casinos opening in neighboring Myawaddy, many thousands of outsiders now pass through Mae Sot daily, creating a higher risk environment for child sex trafficking. Many children are being kidnapped in broad daylight while they are playing outside in their home neighborhoods. If they are fortunate enough to be returned, the emotional and psychological trauma of their experiences as child sex workers requires intensive psychosocial counseling. BBP has experience providing counseling for these children, and we intend to expand our services to support the victims of child abuse and human trafficking moving forward.
