The measures unveiled by the Federal Government to curb sexual abuse in schools and hotels are a step in the right direction, but more needs to be done to address the root causes of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV). The introduction of mobile courts is a welcome development, but ensuring access to justice, support services, and psycho-social care for survivors is crucial. #NigeriaGovt #FGN #SGBVPrevention #AccessToJustice #SupportSurvivors #GenderEqualityMatters https://lnkd.in/eyaYY2H3

According to the FBI, law enforcement agencies received over 7,000 reports related to the online sextortion of minors last year. Over a dozen of the sextortion victims died by suicide. There is a strong connection between BOTH sextortion and suicide, as well as the risk of suicide in survivors of childhood sexual abuse. "Tragically we are seeing more and more young men commit suicide as a result of being sextorted," Simon Bailey, Director of Strategic Engagement at CRC said. "These are boys who leave behind devastated families who would have supported them if they had known they were being exploited. That is why it is so important that parents talk to their children about what they are doing online and to whom they are talking, and always assure their children that they can tell them anything.” It's #WorldSuicidePreventionDay and CRC encourages these conversations be brought to the forefront. Please talk with your children about online safety and what to do if they encounter sexual abuse or exploitation. Knowing you're a place they can come for nonjudgemental help can make all the difference. Get conversation starters and tips for tackling these tough topics on our blog. https://lnkd.in/gWrAN5x

Onset Of Child Sexual Abuse. Most self-reported victims of child sexual abuse (CSA) are harmed by peers or known older youth. Most adults with attraction to youth became aware of their sexual interests in early adolescence, with the average age of first-time sexual perpetration being between 11 and 16 years. Young perpetrators can change: the re-offense rate for older youth who sexually harm children is lower than the rate for other types of crimes. Youngsters at risk will contact a helpline about sexual questions and issues for youth, suggesting such services should be rolled out.

For survivors of childhood sexual abuse seeking justice through the civil courts, the path has long been an emotional and traumatic gauntlet. However, new government proposals aim to remove a major legal hurdle that has prevented many historic cases from even reaching trial.   Overcoming #civilcourts #consultationperiod #governmentproposals #historiccases #judicialprocess #justicesystem #legalhurdles #legalreforms #legislativedebate #MinistryofJustice #statuteoflimitations #Survivors #survivorsadvocates #victimsrights
