As we look back on 2024, Protect Children has made incredible strides in our mission to protect and empower children, families, and professionals across the globe. From groundbreaking research and vital collaborations to impactful educational initiatives, this year has highlighted the dedication and hard work of our team, and the support of the global community tackling child sexual abuse and exploitation.
Join us as we reflect on some of our key milestones throughout the year.
📆 January
Protect Children started 2024 with the fantastic Educa Fair, Finland’s leading event for the education and training sector. In the event, we shared our educational materials for children, families, and professionals working with children for free. Thank you to everyone who came by our stand – you can also come see us at Educa Fair 2025 on January 24-25!
Find all our educational materials on the Resources page.

Supporting Families, Children, and Professionals
Overall, in 2024, we held four different You Are Enough Peer Support Groups for parents and caregivers of child victims of sexual violence: two groups for parents of victims of close offenders, one for online crimes, and one extension group.
Moreover, in 2024, a total of 6,329 children (5-9-year-olds) attended our remote Stop, Slow & Go workshops for practicing digital safety skills and body boundaries, and we trained over 620 professionals on the topic.
Looking Ahead: Continuing Our Commitment to Protecting Children
As we move into 2025, we remain deeply committed to expanding our reach and strengthening our efforts to keep children safe. We will continue to focus on empowering families, training professionals, and delivering effective prevention and support programs. We are excited to further our research and continue collaborating with international partners to drive meaningful change.
With new projects on the horizon, we aim to make an even greater impact in protecting children from harm, amplifying the voices of survivors, and creating a safer environment for future generations.
Let's Protect Children together!
