dc.description.abstractThis workshop convened for the first time most of the leading global experts on the epidemiology of violence against children. Participants exchanged information regarding the current state of international epidemiological research about child protection and discussed methodological problems involved in trying to arrive at the most accurate estimates of the prevalence of different forms of child maltreatment around the world. The attendees also presented the findings of meta-­‐ analyses they had carried out on the prevalence of violence against children around the world and discussed methodological problems in conducting meta-­‐analysis and in the cross-­‐national epidemiology of violence against children. Their aim was to identify areas in the field that need strengthening, promote exchanges between researchers and greater coordination of their efforts, and formulate recommendations for future research activities.en_US
