❗️1 in 8 kids report experiencing unwanted sexual advances on Instagram in just one week❗️ ❌ But Meta continues prioritizing revenue—$164 billion last year alone—over children’s safety and well-being. ✊ We call on Meta to act now to protect children on its platforms👇

❗️Childlight - Global Child Safety Institute's new report exposes how financial institutions, tech companies & online payment platforms profit from online child sexual exploitation and abuse.❗ ✊ We must hold them to account to keep children #SafeOnline👇

🌍 Online child sexual abuse and exploitation knows no borders. A lack of coordinated action is allowing child sexual abuse material to circulate online, with +105 million images detected in 2023. ✊ The only way to combat this threat to children is for every country to commit to a safe digital future through legislation and regulation. 💡 Learn more about why we need global cooperation to keep children #SafeOnline in this new piece on IMPAKTER by our Founder Daniela Ligiero (she/her)👇 #ViolenceIsPreventable #EndChildhoodSexualViolence

❗ The bipartisan and bicameral TAKE IT DOWN Act cleared the House Energy and Commerce Committee on Tuesday with broad bipartisan support. 👏 Together for Girls and Brave Movement applaud the Committee and are proud to join over 100 organizations in support of the TAKE IT DOWN Act. 📣 If passed into law, the bill would require tech and social media platforms to remove CSAM and non-consensual intimate images, including AI-generated images, within 48 hours of being notified and criminalizes posting such content. ✊Protecting children from sexual violence requires building a safer internet. We urge House leadership to quickly bring S.146 to the floor for a vote! #ViolenceIsPreventable #SafeOnline
