Global Survivor Council

The GSC brings together individuals from survivor-led networks across the globe who can speak to all forms of violence against children. It will play a crucial role in ensuring continuous survivor engagement in the design and delivery of the first Global Ministerial Conference to End Violence Against Children and the final political declaration.

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.
