214. The State must comply with the reparation measures provided in this section within a period
of 18 months from the notification of this judgment. The State must present an annual report for
five years, in which it indicates the actions that have been carried out for such purposes.
d.4.
Sexual education for children and adolescents
215. The Court has indicated that sexual and reproductive education must be suitable to enable
children to have an adequate understanding of the implications of sexual and emotional relationships,
particularly in relation to consent for such relationships and the exercise of freedoms regarding their
sexual and reproductive rights.331 In this regard, Bolivia has indicated that it is developing a
Comprehensive Sexual Education Program. However, the Court notes that the program has not been
approved to date and that the State did not provide additional information on other measures in this
regard that are currently in force.
216. Therefore, the Court considers it pertinent that the State, within a period of two years from the
notification of this judgment, incorporates adequate, timely and appropriate information into the
compulsory school teaching materials in accordance with the level of maturity of the children and
adolescents aimed at providing them with tools to prevent, identify and report acts that constitute
sexual violence and its risks. These materials must include information about the importance of
consent in sexual relations and about incest. The State must present an annual report for three
years, in which it indicates the actions that have been carried out for such purposes.
d.5.
Statistics on sexual violence against children and adolescents
217. The Court values the information presented by the State regarding the existence of the
Information System for Children and Adolescents ("SINNA" according to its initials in Spanish) and
the records and statistics carried out by the Bolivian Police and the Public Prosecution, and that these
databases have been used for the development of technical instruments such as the Integrated
Bolivian Model of Action against Gender-Based Violence and for Strengthening the capacities of the
different actors in addressing cases of sexual violence against children and adolescents. However,
the Court notes that said information is fragmented in different national institutions and that the data
is not publicly accessible.
218. Considering the above and taking into account the importance of access to information for the
formulation of appropriate public policies aimed at preventing the repetition of events such as those
in this case, this Court orders that the State design, within a period of one year, and implement,
within three years, a national, centralized system for collecting data on cases of sexual violence
against minors, disaggregating age, place of occurrence, profile of the perpetrator, relationship with
the victim, among other variables, that allow the quantitative and qualitative analysis of acts of
sexual violence against minors. In addition, the number of cases that were effectively prosecuted
must be specified, identifying the number of accusations, convictions, and acquittals. This information
must be disseminated annually by the State, guaranteeing its access to the entire population in
general, as well as the confidentiality of the identity of the victims. To this end, the State must
present to the Court an annual report for five years from the implementation of the data collection
system, in which it indicates the actions that have been carried out for this purpose.
E. Other reparation measures requested
219. The Commission asked the Court to order the State to provide the health care measures
necessary for Brisa's rehabilitation, if she so wishes, by mutual agreement. It added that, if it is not
possible to implement the measures due to Brisa's lack of permanence in Bolivia, the State be ordered
