DESCRIPTION

Words matter because they affect how we conceptualise problems, prioritise issues, and forge responses. Inconsistent use of language and terms can lead to inconsistent laws and policy responses on the same issue. Despite the existence of legal definitions for a number of sexual crimes against children, there is still considerable confusion surrounding the use of different terminology related to the sexual exploitation and sexual abuse of children.

The workshop aims to discuss and analyse the Terminology Guidline as a reflective tool in order to think on the diverse modalities in child sexual abuse and child sexual explotation.
