The 18th of November marks the first European Day on the protection of children against sexual exploitation and sexual abuse initiated by the Council of Europe.

On this occasion, the Council of Europe produced an awareness-raising movie made by children for children.

During the last 3 years, ECPAT groups haven been collaborating on the project “Don’t Look Away” to raise awareness among travellers on child sexual exploitation in tourism and to encourage them to report sexual abuse.

ECPAT Belgium, which has been fighting against child sexual exploitation for 25 years, welcomes this initiative of the new European Day.
