Abstract

This study aims to analyze the issue of child sex tourism (CST) and their correlations with sport mega-events tanking into consideration the implementation of preventive public policy in in the host city of Recife - located in the Northeast Brazil -due to the 2014 Football World Cup. Through a qualitative approach based on a three-year longitudinal study - interviews, observations and photographs - the theme will be analyzed taking into account the social aspects entangled, and the implications of excluded sectors of society in the organization of so-called mega-events. Although in the short term, the results obtained in the analyzed projects have been satisfactory, in the long run, effective social and educational measures must be prioritized to improve the situation of the actors involved. As part of a sport mega-event, the topic of CST remains marginal, particularly in countries where the social inequality persists, as well as gender issues.
