Astha Ramaiya [Co-author] Shared the Journal Article - Published in Child Abuse & Neglect, June 2026
A new systematic review published in Child Abuse & Neglect examined the link between mental health and technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse (TF-CSEA). Analysing 10 studies with over 25,000 participants across seven countries, researchers found that depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and prior trauma were consistently associated with victimisation. Crucially, the relationship appears bidirectional with mental health difficulties both preceding and resulting from exploitation; creating potential cycles of repeated harm. Perhaps most striking: traditional parental monitoring through technological surveillance showed limited protective effects. What actually mattered? The quality of parent-child relationships including, open communication, emotional warmth, and trust. The findings suggest prevention efforts should combine universal school-based programmes building emotional resilience with targeted support for high-risk youth, while parent education should prioritise connection over control. With 12.5% of children globally experiencing online solicitation annually, understanding these psychological pathways is essential for effective child protection.

Evaluando los ODS d
Quisiera referirme a los diversos tenmas que se plantean en este foro:
Cuando se habla de Evaluación, estamos hablando de procesos que tiene que ver con el fortalecimiento de capacidades a nivel de pais, sobre todo cuando se tocan temas que son compromisos a nivel de nación y que aportan al bienestar en este caso la equidad e igualdad de género, una de las limitaciones que visualizo en cuanto a los métodos exitentes de recolecciónde datos, es que si bien es cierto existen indicadores de país, no se registran sistematicamente, esto quiee decir que es dificil darle seguimiento e indicar la situación real sobre este tema.
Por otro lado el ejercicio evaluativo debiera ser desde la perspectiva del Estado como garante de los Derechos Humanos de todas las personas y desde su obligatoriedad al hacer vida las direrentes politica públicas que existen, comprender y delimitar los impactos de todas las intervenciones de instituciones de estado y sociedad civil requiere homogenizar, primero los sindicadores a los cuales se les darpa seguimiento, luego la manera de registrar la información, consensuarla y presentarla, como medir el impacto?, podrpia ser de muchas manera pero somo tiene que ver con cambios de comportamiento, con cambios de vida, sería importante no solo utilizar información cuantitativa, sino cualitativa de primera mano, es decir, de la boca de las personas que están viviendo o nó el cambio.
Bueno no todo es negativo, también se están haciendo muchos esfuerzos a nivel de Estado y sociedad civil, en mi institución que es de Estado, estamos identificando, formulando e incorporando indicadores a nuestro sistema de monitoreo y evaluación, para darle seguimiento a todas las acciones de otras instituciones de Estado que tienen que ver con la politica de desarrollo social y que tienen que ver con la equidad y el enfoque de genero.
