The aim of this research is to obtain an overview of the dynamics of the experience of sexual violence and its impact on children in Ogan Komering Ulu Regency. This research method uses qualitative research with a descriptive phenomenological approach. The number of informants was five main informants and six supporting informants. The main informants are children who have experienced sexual violence and supporting informants, parents or guardians, people closest to them who are trusted by the informants and officers from the Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Service. The results of research on the dynamics of the experience of sexual violence in children show that all perpetrators come from familial abuse which is accompanied by physical and psychological pressure. Factors that influence the occurrence of sexual violence in children are family factors, environmental factors, cultural factors and individual factors. The impact of sexual violence that arises is pain in the body, fear of seeing items related to the perpetrator, despair and shame about the environment. Health workers can disseminate reproductive health education on how to prevent sexual violence to parents to reduce the rate of sexual violence against children so that a child-friendly city program can be realized.
