Violence against children may be a hidden phenomenon, shrouded in shame and silence, but it does not take place in a vacuum. Indeed children’s vulnerability, as well as genuine opportunities to prevent and respond to violence, are all strongly influenced by risk factors such as poverty and deprivation, gang and armed violence, organized crime, climate change, natural disasters and mass displacements. The work carried out since the establishment of the SRSG mandate, together with the partnerships that it has generated, has advanced our understanding of these critical factors.
