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.

Event Description
The UN Trust Fund to End Violence against Women (UN Trust Fund) aims to harvest, analyze and disseminate lessons from the projects it funds in order to build a stronger knowledge base for scaling up global efforts to eliminate violence against women and girls. This Virtual Brownbag Event forms part of continuous UN Trust Fund efforts to share—with partners, EVAW/G practitioners and donors—new evaluation learning, as well as the diversity of content and practice-based knowledge from the civil society organizations it funds.
The event aims to bring together UN Women Colleagues, Civil Society Organizations and Partners to engage with the learning from the recently completed independent, external, meta-analysis of EVAW/G evaluations of 30 projects managed by UN Trust Fund grantees in 26 countries[i] between 2015 and 2019. This 90-minute webinar presentation has three main objectives:
- To share the findings of the meta-analysis of 30 external evaluations of EVAW/G projects supported by the UN Trust Fund in 26 countries globally, focused on what we are learning about the characteristics that determine the effectiveness, sustainability and impact of EVAW/G projects;
- To engage with the practice-based knowledge from the projects, which constitute a valuable resource both for those interested in advancing knowledge in the field of EVAW/G and for practitioners to learn from each other; and
- To offer a contribution to the EVAW/G evidence base with learning from interventions implemented by civil society organizations, especially women’s organizations, at the frontlines of EVAW response and prevention.
You are all invited to this presentation of the Meta-analysis of evaluations managed by UN Trust Fund grantees between 2015 and 2019. The webinar will be on Tuesday, 13 October 2020 from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. EDT (New York time).
