Alejandra Baigorria at global controversy: her video is linked to influencers who exploit child poverty in Africa “to gain clicks”

Peruvian personality Alejandra Baigorria has been drawn into a global controversy after a video she posted three months ago on social media was featured by the international outlet DW Español. The footage was used to illustrate the practice of influencers exploiting vulnerable children in Africa to generate clicks and online engagement.

The inclusion of Baigorria's content links her previous social media activity to a broader international discussion regarding the ethics of content creation and poverty tourism on digital platforms.
