Two comprehensive sets of factsheets, designed to raise awareness on the key findings of the Lanzarote Committee (i.e. the Committee of the Parties to the Convention on the Protection of Children against Sexual Exploitation and Sexual Abuse) have been just released. These factsheets are based on the Lanzarote Committee’s report on the protection of children from sexual exploitation and sexual abuse facilitated by information and communication technologies (ICTs), with a focus on "Addressing the challenges raised by child self-generated sexual images and/or videos".
The thematic factsheets each cover a key area in the fight against online child sexual exploitation and abuse: legal frameworks, investigation and prosecution, jurisdiction rules, civil society participation, awareness-raising activities, education of children, training of professionals, and research.
The country factsheets compile the analysis and recommendations addressed specifically to each of the 43 States parties to the Lanzarote Convention, which were assessed as part of the 2nd monitoring round.
The aim of these new tools is to give readers, whether States representatives, professionals or the general public, a better understanding of the analysis of the situation carried out by the Lanzarote Committee with respect to legislation and policies to address the challenges raised by child self-generated sexual images and/or videos in the fight against online child sexual exploitation and sexual abuse. They summarise the Committee’s reasoning and contain all the recommendations addressed to the States parties, along with some examples of promising practices.
