The government is launching a vast campaign on television, in the cinema and on social networks to call for responsibility in the face of sexual violence against children.

Breaking this notion of secrecy in the context of sexual violence against children is one of the objectives of a shocking video. This campaign is the government’s new tool to raise awareness among the French about sexual violence against children. Modeled modeled on road safety, the campaign aims to encourage everyone to take responsibility and raise awareness of the extent of the phenomenon, with, in particular, an emergency number: 119.

“This campaign will certainly awaken certain consciences”

Because, beyond that of children, it is also the words of adults that must be freed, according to the association L’enfant bleu. “This campaign will certainly awaken certain consciences”, confides Isabelle Debré, president of the L’enfant bleu association. According to the Independent Commission on Incest and Sexual Violence Against Children (Civise), 160,000 children suffer sexual violence each year in France.
