Alarmingly, self-generated sexual images and videos featuring under-18s now accounts for nearly a third of all our actioned child sexual abuse material online. You can help us take them down by anonymously reporting at iwf.org.uk/onesimplereport #OneSimpleReport #SoSockingSimple
If you work in the field of child sexual abuse (including CSE) we'd love you to complete a short questionnaire as part of our evaluation of the CSA centre - you don't need to have worked with them to take part; please retweet and encourage others

We know that every time an image or video of child sexual abuse is viewed, the victim suffers repeat victimisation. We're here to stop that and you can help. If you stumble across child sexual abuse images online, don't look away. Report anonymously to iwf.org.uk

Reporting online sexual images of children is quicker and easier than you might think and can save a child from a lifetime of abuse. It can also be done from 26 different countries. Don't ignore it, report it. Watch How! bit.ly/2DO0NR9

The @UN_HRC is releasing concrete guidelines to give States advice on how to effectively protect children from sexual exploitation. 🇺🇳 As expert partners, we're happy to finally be able to share this with you! #OPSC #CRC ecpat.org/news/opsc-guidelin…
As more than 99% of known child sexual abuse imagery is hosted outside of the UK, we work in partnership with police, governments and other hotlines across the world to combat this problem. Find out more on our website: iwf.org.uk/
