皇冠体育app UK, US, and EU Commission have formalised the merger between and the Global Alliance Against Child Sexual Exploitation that was announced at the November Summit in Abu Dhabi. 皇冠体育app new board is committed to leading the worldwide movement to transform how the crime of online child exploitation is prevented.

皇冠体育app aim is for more victims to be identified and safeguarded, more perpetrators being brought to justice, and ultimately to create a world free of online child sexual exploitation.

Home Secretary 皇冠体育appresa May said:

Tackling the heinous crime of online child sexual exploitation is one of the most important issues we face today, and the UK continues to drive forward action to tackle this.

However, these crimes cannot be resolved by the UK Government alone. This is a global problem, and we have to work together to protect our children.

I am grateful for all the work that has already been achieved by many members of the newly formed board as part of the WePROTECT summits, and I am confident that this global initiative will deliver real change.

Members of the board include:

• founder of WePROTECT, Minister for Internet Safety and Security, Baroness Shields
• representatives from non-governmental organisations (NGOs), leading global technology companies and law enforcement agencies both from the UK and abroad.

Minister for Internet Safety and Security Baroness Shields said:

Technology offers endless benefits and possibilities to our children, but equally, it empowers the criminal, the corrupt, and the coercive.

This partnership between governments, industry, law enforcement and NGOs is absolutely vital to staying ahead of this vile crime, which goes across borders and can only be ended through global cooperation.

皇冠体育app board will drive global initiatives and support members to deliver their commitments, and secure the support of more countries and organisations.
