A PLEDGE to tackle violence against women and girls can only be fulfilled if it properly addresses child sex abuse, campaigners have warned.
-
Children's organisations including Barnardo's and the NSPCC have written to the Government to raise concerns over the scope of its strategy.
The letter follows a report that child sexual exploitation and abuse (CSEA) might not be included in the scope of the violence against women and girls (VAWG) strategy.
Signatories including the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) and Centre of Expertise on Child Sexual Abuse, insisted the Government cannot "truly tackle violence against women and girls without tackling the sexual abuse of children".
