The Strategy covers laws and other actions to fight child sexual abuse both online and offline. It covers stopping this crime from happening in the first place, helping its victims access comprehensive assistance and supporting law enforcement. A new centre will coordinate these different strands.
Children, need to know that certain behaviours are not acceptable, and be able to report abuse via safe, accessible and age appropriate channels without fear. Children at particular risk of sexual abuse include children with disabilities, children from marginalised communities, unaccompanied minors, and child victims of trafficking (the majority of whom are girls). Industry should prevent children from being groomed or abused online, and prevent child sexual abuse images from being shared.
