Magallanes tourism safety and security initiatives

Overview

In Magallanes, authorities and tourism organizations have initiated efforts to improve regional safety and preparedness for the summer season. An initial seminar in Punta Arenas focused on public-private coordination to manage risks such as forest fires, meteorological events, and epidemiological surveillance.

Following these preparedness efforts, officials launched a preventive intervention at the Arturo Prat pier to address the sexual exploitation of children and adolescents (ESNNA) within the tourism sector. This initiative includes a national pilot program known as the ‘Comprehensive Protection Circuit against ESNNA’ to establish response procedures, as regional authorities reported that Magallanes holds the highest rate of child exploitation victims in Chile.

These ongoing preventive measures to combat the sexual exploitation of minors in tourism contexts remain a key component of regional tourism-related initiatives in Chile.
