Preventing and tackling child sexual exploitation and abuse both online and offline requires multi-stakeholder cooperation and hence families, professionals working with children, policy-makers and ICT-industry are encouraged to participate in the conversation. By working together, we can protect children from all forms of sexual violence.

In support of the day, Save the Children Finland organised a campaign on social media in order to raise awareness about online sexual abuse - see the #childrentoo hashtag or visit the Save the Children Finland website for more information.
