This illustration summarises key messages from an international research study that explored the potential outcomes associated with the individual and collective participation of children and young people impacted by child sexual abuse and exploitation.

The findings illustrated that while there was consensus surrounding myriad potential benefits associated with the participation of young survivors, there were differing views and concerns surrounding the potential risks and tensions. This illustration seeks to convey that participation can lead to a number of outcomes and that these may be influenced by a range of different factors.
