Everyone who has suffered child sexual exploitation or abuse has the right to rebuild their lives and find a path towards healing. Access to justice and effective remedies can be an important step on that path.
ECPAT advocates for justice and remedies for survivors of child sexual exploitation and abuse. In the past decade, ECPAT has had conversations with 185 survivors in 16 countries to understand the barriers they experienced in accessing justice through the formal justice system. The findings and expertise built through such work allow victims of child sexual exploitation and abuse who have attempted access to formal justice to have their voices heard. Their voices clearly demonstrate the specificities of justice issues for children who are the victim of this particular crime.
