What Can We Learn from the Global South about Participation and Minimising Opportunities for the Exploitation of Children and Young People?
This paper draws on a study in the UK funded by the Nuffield Foundation that drew on methods of co-production to consider if there could be community engagement in developing an information sharing model to address the problem of exploitation. The paper discusses key findings and asks what we can learn from research findings in the Global South to better facilitate participation and support communities and survivors to minimise harm arising from exploitation.
