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.

What If Gender Equality Also Needs Men? Rethinking Gender Work Beyond the Usual Comfort Zone, By - Ribeiro Vasco Nhambi
This action brief argues that contemporary gender-equality programming remains incomplete when it fails to integrate men as active, reflective, and legitimate participants in social transformation. While the historical and political focus on women is justified, the systematic exclusion of men from gender initiatives produces an imbalance that limits transformative impact and leaves gender norms unchallenged. Recognizing men not as obstacles but as gendered…
