Sadly, child abuse constitutes a current social phenomenon. By the term “child abuse and neglect”, we refer to any case of maltreatment, whether it’s of physical, emotional or sexual nature. Most child abuse occurs within the family, or by other caregivers. It is estimated that roughly 500 million to 1.5 billion children are being abused each year. It is also estimated that at least 275 million children all over the world, are subjected to violence in their own home. 

It’s our responsibility to make the world a safer place for children. 

This concerns all of us!
