Anti-Child Sexual Abuse Initiative is an
initiative which is firmly rooted in the belief that child sexual abuse and
exploitation must be prevented before it occurs not after the fact actions.
We work with boys and girls who are at risk of being
sexually abused and exploited including those who have been sexually abused and
exploited in many different societies and cultures of Africa.
We
acknowledge that boundaries between normal and abusive sexual behavior can be
obscure; cultural differences and traditions between societies cannot be
ignored. However, while concepts and definitions can be the subject of academic
debate, victims without doubt live through a traumatic experience with
devastating and often irreversible effects. In this view the impact of sexual
and gender-based violence resonates in all areas of health and social
programming: survivors of sexual violence experience increased rates of
morbidity and mortality, and violence has been shown to exacerbate HIV
transmission, among other health conditions.

abuse and exploitation initiative that prevent child sexual abuse and
exploitation before it occurs not after
the fact actions.
