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.

Hi Hamutal,

I came across this announcement. Please see if it is useful Small Grants to Support Evaluations (https://t.e2ma.net/click/k3y0s/kfcngl/4mjlcf)

The MEASURE Evaluation project is pleased to announce a request for applications (RFA) for its small grants program to support an evaluation topic that has been identified as a country-led health priority. The primary objectives of this program are:

To build capacity among local researchers to conduct and participate in a rigorous evaluation related to a health topic, and

To support research gaps through the development of evaluations to inform programmatic or policy decision-making related to health.

Given that implementation of a full evaluation is likely to exceed the time and budget available for a small grant, the small grants are expected to focus on a component of a rigorous evaluation. Examples include, but are not limited to the development of an evaluation protocol, addition of a qualitative component to an existing evaluation, or analysis of previously collected data to address an evaluation question.

Eligible candidates include country or regional academic institutions or centers, non-profit and for-profit research organizations, parastatals, and research-focused NGOs.

See the full RFA and find out how to apply (https://t.e2ma.net/click/k3y0s/kfcngl/kfklcf).

Try Global Fund For Women for support for this. Google them. Change Matrix that they use is extremely good for assessing partners from a feminist lens. Look at their own evaluation- which is more summative.   However, I introduced this methodology with with TEWA, Nepal a feminist fund for both formative and summative evaluations. Best Ranjani

Dear Hamutal,

The change matrix framework (largely known as Gender at Framework) as mentioned by Ranjani would be very useful for any impact evaluation. While using this framework, gender power analysis must be done. Oxfam very recently has also evolved with a strategy known as Transformative Leadership for Women's Rights. This can be viewed in Oxfam's website.

Thanks & Regards,

Thank you! We are using Making the Case, an evaluation tool developed by the Women's Funding Network, but we wanted to do an external research as well, looking back at our work in our 11 years of operation and forming and informing our future strategies.
