In the rapidly evolving digital landscape of today, ensuring the safety of children from abuse is becoming increasingly challenging. Child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSE) are pervasive issues occurring in both public and private domains, extending beyond physical spaces to include a critical online dimension.
This is where ICMEC Australia can assist. As a not-for-profit organisation, we’re uniquely positioned to facilitate meaningful collaboration and partnership across both the public and private sectors for the ultimate purpose – keeping children safe from harm.
We work with organisations from these industries:
- Financial services
- Telecommunication
- Broader Business and Corporate
- Law enforcement
- Academia
- Regulation
- Government
- Not-for-profits and NGOs
Too often, systemic barriers can make it hard to protect children as comprehensively as we want to. By leveraging our collective expertise and resources towards developing impactful solutions, we can save more children from harm.
Our four streams of work complement our mission for better outcomes for children everywhere, supporting all corners of the child sexual exploitation and abuse response ecosystem.
