UNITED KINGDOM
Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse
15 August
The research strand of the Inquiry is seeking to commission researchers to carry out two Rapid Evidence Assessments (literature reviews):
* Behaviour and Characteristics of Perpetrators of Online-Facilitated Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation
* Characteristics and Vulnerabilities of Victims of Online-Facilitated Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation
The overarching questions that these procurements seek to answer are:
* What is known about the behaviour and characteristics of people who sexually abuse or exploit children, where such abuse is facilitated by the Internet?
* What is known about the characteristics, vulnerabilities and on- and offline behaviour of victims of online-facilitated child sexual abuse and exploitation?
