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 Ugwuibe,
Technical proposal is in other words your evaluation plan in response to the Terms of reference that is shared. In the technical proposal you will have to show that you have understood the context, purpose and objectives of the evaluation. You design your methodology in details based on the scope and scale of the evaluation. Evaluation matrix should be part of the technical prposal where you will reshape/ add / delete evaluation questions and map how those will be responded (some of them through desk review, som will require data collection throguh surveys, interviews, focus group discussions etc). You should also include the team that meets the requirements in the ToR and justify, if different from what is required.
Financial proposal will include all costs associated with the evaluation as per technical proposal of yours.
The RFP document has information on what technical and financial proposals should include and how it will be rated.
Try to google evaluation proposals or evaluation plans or bidding for evaluation and you will come across lots of resources that will help you to learn more and participate in the bidding in the future.
Good luck,
Farhod
