Social Campaigns

See it, Hear it, Say it campaign aims to raise public sensitivity to physical abuse of children and to enhance the engagement of witnesses of violence against children in efforts to reduce it. It is realised under a slogan: parents who beat their children are trying to hide it. Another goal is encouragement of local communities and institutions to undertake activities for the benefit of abused children.

The goal of the Child as a Witness campaign is to improve the situation of children who have been victimized and who participate in legal procedures, such as interviews and court trials. The programme is targeted at child victims’ parents and caregivers, who are provided with information on relevant legal regulations, the scope of competence of the police, the prosecutor, and the court, as well as interviewing procedures. The campaign is also addressed to professionals - judges, prosecutors, police officers, and psychologists acting as court experts - participating in legal interventions or helping children throughout the process. It is aimed at increasing these professional groups' sensitivity to children's special needs in criminal proceedings, improving their skills and competences related to interviewing children and lobbying for the development of child-friendly interview rooms.

The main goal of the Child in the Web social campaign is to draw adults and children’s attention to threats related to meeting strangers online and to educate them how to use the Internet safely. The other issue is illegal content children may encounter while surfing the Internet on their own.

The main objective of the Childhood without Violence campaign was to increase social involvement into actions towards fighting child abuse. Therefore campaign's activities included promotion of the positive solutions on prevention, protection and intervention in child abuse cases and encouraging local communities and institutions into undertaking suitable activities. The campaign aimed also at improving the system of family assistance and at developing parental skills and attitudes. The target groups of the campaign are representatives of institutions and services helping abused children, representatives of the local authorities, parents and public opinion in general.
