Advocacy for improved online safety of children in Kenya

Terre des Hommes Netherlands has recently participated in various stakeholder forums as part of its programme addressing Online Child Sexual Exploitation (OCSE) in Kenya. Our expertise gathered through various rapid assessment and baseline researches in the country, combined with the insights from our worldwide efforts to deter and help catching OCSE predators, formed the basis of discussions with authorities, NGOs and professionals working with children. All stakeholders once again committed themselves to join forces to combat online violence, sexual abuse and exploitation of children. In addition, Terre des Hommes Netherlands successfully put child online safety on the map of the ongoing lobby around the Children Bill 2018.
