KEY FINDINGS
Out of the shadows: Shining light on the response to child sexual abuse and exploitation – a 40-country benchmarking index examines how countries are responding to the threat of sexual violence against children.
It explores the environment in which the issue occurs and is addressed; the degree to which a country’s legal framework provide protections for children from sexual violence; whether government commitment and capacity is being deployed to equip institutions and personnel to respond appropriately; and the engagement of industry, civil society and media in efforts to tackle the problem.
