Children in every country, every culture and at every social level face various forms of abuse,
neglect, exploitation and violence1. The abuse takes place at home, in school, in institutions,
at work, in ...>the community, in armed conflict and natural disasters. Much violence against
children, such as corporal punishment and sexual abuse, remains legal and socially approved

dignity, and physical and psychological integrity. Save the Children works to prevent
abuse and neglect from happening, ensure the victims of violence are supported and that
justice is ensured.
