In 2024, ICMEC Australia held two key industry events that underscored what we stand for: fostering collaboration, driving innovation, and inspiring action. Together, we are making meaningful strides toward creating a world where no child can be exploited. You can learn more about the importance of these events through the highlights below.
At our Symposium in October 2024, leaders from financial services, telecommunications, law enforcement, and government came together to tackle the ever-evolving challenges of child sexual exploitation (CSE). The event fostered open dialogue and encouraged bold, innovative solutions, with discussions focusing on strengthening cross-sector collaboration, leveraging technology and data to combat exploitation, and ensuring leadership and accountability to sustain impactful public-private initiatives.
The SaferAI for Children Summit at KPMG in October 2024, explored AI’s dual role as both a risk and a tool in child protection. Voices from government, academia, law enforcement, and the tech sector highlighted the dangers of AI misuse and its potential to transform how we prevent and address harm. The insights shared will guide our efforts to ensure technology is a force for good.
