Child Protection: A Shared Responsibility
Children face risks from strangers, peers, or even within their own families. Alarming statistics reveal an increase in sexual crimes against children and incidents of hate speech and radicalisation. In our technologically connected world, these challenges are exacerbated.
At PPHS, we stand as partners in safeguarding children. Our initiatives focus on preventing and countering abuse while raising awareness of the need for whole system approaches that consider all angles. We can only create a safer environment for the next generation by working together.
