ESNNA Code of Conduct
What is the ESNNA Code?
Inka Ayway proudly adheres to the ESNNA Code of Conduct (Código de Conducta Contra la Explotación Sexual de Niñas, Niños y Adolescentes), an official policy established by Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (MINCETUR) to prevent and eradicate any form of sexual exploitation of children and adolescents within the tourism sector.
This code aligns with Law N° 28251 – Law Against Sexual Abuse and Exploitation, which classifies the sexual exploitation of minors as a serious crime, especially when linked to travel and tourism activities.
