Changing the real-world response to online child sexual abuse through research and innovation
Thu, September 12, 8:00 to 9:15am, Faculty of Law, University of Bucharest, Floor: 1st floor, Room 2.22Session Submission Type: Pre-arranged Panel
Abstract
In 2022 the US National Center for Missing & Exploited Children analysed just over 32 million reports of child sexual abuse material received from across the globe. This represents an 87% increase on the number processed in 2019.The true scale of child sexual exploitation and abuse online is likely greater than this as a lot of harm is not reported.
Given this context, there is a pressing need to deepen our understanding of the individuals who commit online child sexual abuse offences, so that we are best placed to act to reduce the harm they inflict on children here in the UK and worldwide. The aim of this panel is to present recent research and innovation emerging from the International Policing and Public Protection Research Institute (IPPPRI) and describe how this research is impacting on real-world efforts to prevent online child sexual abuse.
