Its core aims were three-fold: to address the lack of knowledge about children’s own sexual cultures in the context of their everyday lives; to foreground equality and diversity (Public Sector Equality Duty, 2012); and to enable children’s own views and experiences to inform and shape future research, policies and practice (Article 12, UNCRC).ensexualization of childrencultureUnited KingdomresearchArticle
