Description
What do you know about OCSEA - Online Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse? At least  8 out of 10 children who have access to the internet have experienced OCSEA in different ways. It could be from being exposed to sexual material to being asked to share explicit content or watch a live stream. Some children share their content privately only to find their images all over the internet without their consent. According to a recent report funded by End Violence Against Children and implemented by Ecpat, INTERPOL & UNICEF stated in part that "Children are subjected to these potential and actual instances of sexual exploitation and abuse both online and offline. In Kenya, most children who have been exposed to any manifestation of OCSEA have also been subjected to physical, sexual or emotional violence in person." I had a conversation with Caroline Atieno, a counselor at Childline Kenya who painted a picture of our landscape and her experience working with children who have experienced sexual exploitation and abuse. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/evelyn-kasina/message
