World Congress III ends in Rio de Janeiro
The World Congress against the Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents was held November 2008. With 137 governments represented by an official delegation (New Zealand was not one of them!), 3,200 participants and 300 young people, it was a gathering of world expertise on the issue of child sex abuse. Despite increased surveillance and concern there was a general feeling that the amount of child abuse, child pornography and child trafficking is on the increase in most countries. The final resolution called for governments and organisations to give greater priority to measures to protect children.
