Preventing abuse

Preventing the commission of abuse is the best way to protect children online.

Multiple techniques are needed to help ensure children are protected from contact, grooming, sexual abuse and other forms of exploitation online.

These include deterring and engaging with potential offenders, especially those who are younger and may be prevented from becoming offenders. Online tools, helplines and other resources are available to enable this engagement.

Careful risk assessments of technologies and platforms can also help to prevent abuse from occurring, together with shared access to international databases of abuse material and criminal records, hotlines and online cybertip services.
