1 in 8 people have experienced sexual abuse as a child and many others are affected by the damaged relationships with family and friends that can occur as a result.
With a shared vision on what it will take to end childhood sexual violence, we can achieve a world in which children are nurtured and can thrive without the threat of sexual violence.
Our mission
Taking action together
Every child in every country faces the threat of sexual violence. 200 million of our children across the world experience sexual violence each year. With diverse acts of abuse, different settings and relationships, sexual violence is complex, but can can be prevented.
Working collectively, we can make childhood sexual violence zero. We must act now to end this silent global epidemic affecting children across the world.

To Zero was conceived to develop a vision and roadmap - working with sector leaders, practitioners and survivors - that could speed up our progress in ending childhood sexual violence. This ambition was shared by a group of donors who committed to helping realise this important work.
