Commitment title:

To reduce youth pornography addiction as a significant contributor to compulsive sexual behavior disorder and violence against women by supporting effective prevention and education by the year 2030.

Commitment description:

The aim of the presented Commitment is to fully implement the ICPD PA, which states in par. 4.23 that governments are urged to take the necessary measures to prevent abuse of girls in prostitution and pornography. The Ordo Iuris Institute commits to advocate both at international and national levels the introduction of an effective protection of minors against threats connected with pornography addiction. In particular, we will focus on engaging states and international organization in reducing the occurrence of the compulsive sexual behavior disorder (in May 2019 classified in WHO ICD-11 (6C72) as a separate position), which connected with objectification of women, leads to discrimination and violence against women. We will provide appropriate conditions for cooperation between the government, internet service providers, parents and family-friendly organizations, to gradually reduce the percentage of minors addicted to pornographic content and to educate parents in the use of internet filters on devices used by their children. The goal is to liberate minors from the problem of serious addiction, which has until now resulted in dehumanization of women and a significant difficulty in creating reliable and stable families in the future.
