Скачать или смотреть Asking for sexual favors is a form of corruption. Women and girls are particularly vulnerable to it

Corruption doesn’t always involve asking for money. It can also be asking to provide sexual favors in exchange for access to services like education, or obtaining basic requirements such as food, medicine and other necessary items. This type of corruption is called sexual extortion or “Sextortion”. It occurs when those entrusted with Power use it to sexually exploit those dependent on that power. While evidence shows that women and girls are disproportionally targeted, boys and men are also affected often by other males, although to a much lesser extent than women and girls. Sextortion has long been a silent form of corruption hiding in plain view. Until recently, it was never discussed within the corruption framework and as such, even with the many efforts to help them, victims are often shamed and do not feel comfortable speaking up.
