About our SID activities
INHOPE's strength lies in its member-driven network of 55 hotlines across 51 countries, each working tirelessly to protect children and create a safer internet. This Safer Internet Day 2025, we're showcasing the collective impact of our global network through a coordinated campaign highlighting our members' vital work.
While each hotline operates within its unique local context and faces distinct challenges, together they form a powerful force for change. We're amplifying our members' initiatives, events and achievements to demonstrate how local action creates global impact. By sharing these stories across our network, we celebrate the dedication of our members and reinforce our shared commitment to making the internet safer for everyone.
This collaborative approach embodies INHOPE's essence as a member-driven organisation and showcases how we're stronger together in the fight against online child exploitation.
What we are doing to create a better internet...
INHOPE works tirelessly to build a safer internet through coordinated global action. Our advocacy efforts shape online safety policy through evidence-based contributions to legislative developments, while resources like our Global CSAM Legislative Overview guide policymakers and practitioners worldwide.
To expand our impact, we actively develop new hotlines in underserved regions, providing comprehensive support from initial setup through to full membership. Our strategic partnerships with technology companies, law enforcement, and child protection organisations strengthen this global safety net.
At the heart of our work is our commitment to our member hotlines. We foster excellence through comprehensive capacity-building, including monthly analyst Q&As, advanced workshops, and our annual Insafe/INHOPE Training Meeting. Our Quality Assurance Programme (QAP) ensures consistent high standards while protecting the wellbeing of analysts doing this challenging work.
Knowledge sharing is vital to our success. Through our Peer2Peer programme, regular Member Meetings, and Annual General Meeting, hotlines learn from each other's experiences and develop innovative approaches. These connections create a powerful community of practice, united in the mission to eliminate online child exploitation.
By bringing together diverse stakeholders and facilitating continuous learning and collaboration, INHOPE empowers its network to tackle online threats effectively and sustainably. Together, we're creating lasting change for a safer digital world.
About us
INHOPE is a global network of hotlines working to eliminate child sexual abuse material (CSAM) from the internet. Since 1999, INHOPE has provided a safe and anonymous way for the public to report suspected CSAM online. Over the last 25 years, the organisation has grown from nine European hotlines to a global network of 55 hotlines in 51 countries, united by the mission of protecting children and making the internet a safer place.
INHOPE is based in the Netherlands and our member hotlines operate across six continents: Africa, Asia, Australia/Oceania, Europe, North and South America.
In a borderless digital world, CSAM has global consequences, and as its distribution grows, so do our efforts. This is only possible with the support and funding from the European Commission, Safe Online, and INHOPE’s annual funding partners.
