Background Biological changes underlying the sexual and reproductive maturation of school-age children are linked with various sexual and reproductive health and rights risks. SRHR risks are predictors of poor SRHR outcomes, such as poor knowledge of sexually transmitted diseases and early sexual initiation occurring predominantly among school-age children. The aim of this proposed review, therefore, is to identify educational interventions that have proven to be effective in promoting or supporting the sexual and reproductive health and rights of school-aged children in low- and middle-income countries. Methods A systematic review of studies on the strategies promoting the SRHR of school-aged children shall be conducted. Electronic searches will be conducted from January 2000 onwards on the following databases: MEDLINE(R) ALL (Ovid), Embase (Ovid), CINAHL (EBSCOHost), APA PsycInfo (Ovid), ERIC (Ovid), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (Ovid), Education Source (EBSCOHost), Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics), SciELO Citation Index (Clarivate Analytics), Global Health (Ovid), and Sociological Abstract (Proquest). Studies eligible for inclusion will be randomized control trials (RCTs), non-randomized trials, quasi-experimental studies (e.g., pre-post tests), and observational studies (cross-sectional and cohort studies). Peer-reviewed studies published in English and/or French and involving school-aged children 5–10 years old will be included. The primary outcomes of interest will include knowledge, awareness, or attitudes about SRHR topics. The secondary outcomes of interest will include sexual and reproductive behaviors. Two reviewers will independently screen all citations, abstract data, and full-text articles, and the methodological quality of each study will be appraised using JBI critical appraisal tools. A narrative synthesis of extracted data will be conducted. Discussion The systematic review will synthesize the evidence on existing educational interventions targeting SRHR outcomes of school-aged children in low- and middle-income countries. It will identify which interventions have proven to be effective, and which interventions have not proven to be effective in promoting or supporting their SRHR. Review findings will provide a useful reference for policy-makers, program developers, global health leaders, and decision makers who wish to support the SRHR of school-age children. Systematic review registration The protocol has been registered at the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO CRD42020173158).

“…A violência sexual infantil é um fenômeno mundial (Russell, Higgins, & Posso, 2020) influenciado por construções históricas e sociais (Araujo, Ramos, Zaleski, Rozin, & Sanches, 2019) que se ancoram nas iniquidades de gênero, geração, raça/etnia e classe social (Egry, Fonseca, & Oliveira, 2013). Consiste em uma das formas de violação dos direitos das crianças e adolescentes (Souto et al, 2017) e materializa-se frequentemente no domicílio, em um contexto de poder e dominação do agressor em relação à criança ou adolescente (Araujo et al, 2019).…”

“…Em relação às vítimas, a vulnerabilidade é maior para as crianças ou adolescentes do sexo feminino, especialmente, em países com rígidas normas sociais patriarcais (Russell et al, 2020). De acordo com a Organização Mundial de Saúde, a prevalência de violência sexual é de 18% para as meninas e 7,6% para os meninos (World Health Organization, 2014).…”

As meninas têm sido vítimas de violência, especialmente as sexuais. A infância pode ser violada de várias maneiras, como o caso ocorrido no Brasil, em 2020. As pesquisas qualitativas podem elucidar o fenômeno por possibilitar aprofundar as questões complexas ligadas à violência sexual contra meninas que resultam em gravidez e aborto legal. Objetivos: Evidenciar o percurso investigativo qualitativo utilizado para decodificar o caso da menina vítima de estupro perpetrado por um familiar, que resultou em gravidez, e cujo desfecho legal foi o aborto. Métodos: Estudo documental de abordagem qualitativa. As fontes de dados foram dois jornais brasileiros no formato eletrônico. O período da coleta de dados foi de agosto a outubro de 2020. Para tanto, foi utilizado um roteiro semiestruturado. Foram incluídas reportagens sobre o tema de estudo e excluídas as que apenas citavam o caso, sem explorar seus desencadeamentos. Para a análise de conteúdo temática foi utilizado o software webQDA. As categorias analíticas foram gênero e geração. Resultados: Submetidas à análise, as 78 reportagens selecionadas evidenciaram três categorias empíricas: a subalternidade escancarada; o processo para concretização do aborto; criminalização versus legalização do aborto. A metodologia qualitativa apoiada pelo webQDA permitiu expor o que não se mostrou à primeira vista: a existência de profunda subalternidade de gênero e de geração, quando a protagonista, a menina, sofreu diferentes novas violênciasas institucionaisque contradizem o que o Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente determina. Conclusões: O percurso metodológico adotado permitiu olhar para além da própria situação vivenciada pela meninaestupro, gravidez e aborto -antes de completar 12 anos de idade. Sobressaiu a manipulação de líderes e autoridades impondo suas convicções pessoais, ao invés da garantia dos direitos da vítima.
