National survivor councils

Overview Latest Resources Take action

National survivor councils can give survivors not just a voice but influence, ensuring that their insights drive the changes that matter.

These councils can disrupt the status quo by guiding the direction of policies that directly impact survivors' lives.

Governments can develop more informed, empathetic, and effective policies by actively involving survivors of childhood sexual violence

"Without survivor input, governments risk continuing to implement solutions that miss the mark, leaving survivors unsupported or, worse, retraumatized."

Help us end childhood sexual violence

For too long, survivors of childhood sexual violence have been silenced while perpetrators escape justice. We CAN change that. There are clear solutions which would see children better protected, more justice for survivors achieved and better support for healing and trauma relief.

Survivors of child sexual violence must be included in finding these solutions, bringing their expertise and lived experience into shaping improved policies, programmes and approaches. Together, we can — and must — be brave so children and adolescents can be safe.

The Brave Movement is a special initiative of Together for Girls.
