dc.description.abstract | Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, there has been a surge in cases of online child sexual abuse and exploitation (OCSAE) in many parts of the world. This brief discusses the cases of India and Australia. It examines their efforts to combat the increased incidence of OCSAE resulting from greater use of the internet as movement was restricted in response to the pandemic. The brief focuses on India and Australia as both have demonstrated a commitment to promoting child rights and safety and rank high in the 2020 Child Online Safety Index. They are also collaborating on a range of technology and cyber-cooperation initiatives. The brief assesses the implementation and potential effectiveness of key laws, mechanisms, strategies and programmes deployed in the two countries beginning in February 2020, and proposes areas of collaboration. | en_US |
