Disclosure, reporting and help seeking among child survivors of violence: a cross-country analysis
Using VACS data, this study presents descriptive statistics for the prevalence of four outcomes among children aged 13–17 years.
Background
Violence against children is a pervasive public health issue, with limited data available across multiple contexts.
Using nationally-representative Violence Against Children Surveys in six countries: Cambodia, Haiti, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria and Tanzania, this study presents descriptive statistics for prevalence of four outcomes among children aged 13–17 years: informal disclosure, knowledge of where to seek formal help, formal disclosure/help seeking and receipt of formal help.
