Mark your calendars for an impactful day at the European Parliament in Brussels as we gather for the 2KNOW Final Conference: From Knowledge to Action – Advancing Strategies to End Online Sexual Violence Against Children. This one-day event, hosted by Protect Children, brings together child protection professionals, researchers, decision-makers, industry, and law enforcement to explore transformative solutions for safeguarding children worldwide.

📍 | European Parliament, Brussels, Belgium |
Be part of the conversation as we unveil ground-breaking research on offender behaviour and effective family support mechanisms. Discover the transformative impact of the You Are Enough™ peer support groups for parents whose children have fallen victim to sexual violence. Engage with a global network of experts to shape innovative approaches that turn research insights into real-world actions.
The day offers knowledge-sharing, as well as an opportunity to network with key stakeholders, celebrate the achievements of the 2KNOW project, and look ahead to future collaborations. The event concludes with an informal dinner, fostering meaningful connections in a relaxed setting.
In-person participation is highly encouraged to maximize networking opportunities, however, select sessions will be streamed online to ensure wider access.
