Child sexual abuse affects an estimated 1 in 7 boys, yet their experiences are often overlooked. This report amplifies the voices of 1,431 male survivors from the Global Our Voice Survivor Survey, revealing distinct patterns of abuse, disclosure, and long-term impact, and calling for action to ensure boys and men receive the prevention, support, and care they need.

Our Deputy Director & Legal Specialist Anna Ovaska recently published a powerful opinion piece about the importance of implementing strong legislation against AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM). In it, she emphasises the harms AI-generated CSAM has, even if it is not directly depicting a real child.
