THE CAMPAIGN
The full protection of children and adolescents during the 2016 Olympic Games is the focus of a joint campaign at national and international level named “Respect, Protect, Ensure - Everyone together for the Rights of Children and Adolescents”.
The actions on mobilization and engagement are expected to go beyond the competition period, being replicated and disseminated in all big events held in Brazil.
The initiative intends to involve the largest number of institutions, governments and civil society organizations as possible during the biggest sports tournament in the world, to prevent five violations of the rights of children and adolescents that are considered to be the most frequent in big events:
- child sexual exploitation;
- child labor;
- use of alcohol and other illegal drugs;
- street children and adolescents;
- lost or missing children and adolescents.

ACTIONS
Besides informing the population and tourists about the most frequent violations of the rights of children and adolescent in big events, the campaign will disseminate to the public and tourists the main reporting channels to activate the Brazilian Rights Assurance System (RAS) at any sign of violation: the Disque 100 (dial 100) and the Proteja Brasil application.
During the Olympic Games the Committee of Full Protection to Children and Adolescents during Mega-events in Rio de Janeiro will install the Plantões Integrados which are sites with all the technical support, involving about 1,000 professionals to provide clarifications to the public during the Games. The Plantões Integrados will be identified with the campaign logo.
The action will also count on the support of more than 100 volunteers that will work to raise awareness among the population and clarify doubts about main violations.
In addition to posters, banners and distribution of gifts and flyers, the campaign will be disseminated on social networks - Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. The diver Hugo Parisi and the actress Elizabeth Savalla will participate in the campaign supporting it with solidarity and no financial involvement.
The society is expected to get engaged with the campaign through the hashtags #EuRespeito #EuProtejo #EuGaranto (I Respect, I Protect, I Ensure) and to learn about the importance of fully protecting children and adolescents. During the games, volunteers will also encourage the Live Sites audience to post pictures and texts about the campaign.

THE PROJECT
The campaign is part of the project “Rio 2016: Olympic Games of the Rights of Children and Adolescents”, continuing the action promoted during the 2014 FIFA World Cup that, by that time, aimed to fight child sexual exploitation.
