PROTECT
EVERY
child.
We create and invest in innovative tools that leverage technology, research, and education to prevent child sexual abuse — one of the most pervasive and underreported forms of child maltreatment. Eradicating it in our lifetime is not just a goal. It is an obligation.
Our MissionWHO
WE ARE
The Safernet Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Initiative is a coordinated response to one of the world's most persistent yet preventable forms of child maltreatment. With presence in 21 countries across Africa, Asia, and beyond, we combine innovative technology, evidence-based training, psychosocial support, and strategic partnerships to prevent child sexual abuse before it happens.
Our work spans prevention, awareness, capacity building, and survivor support — addressing the challenge from every angle. Whether through our WhatsApp chatbot Kemi, training programs for educators, or policy development with institutions, we are committed to creating safe spaces where every child can grow and thrive.
Meet
Kemi.
Kemi is our purpose-built WhatsApp chatbot — a safe, accessible, and confidential support tool designed to help children, parents, and caregivers get help, report concerns, and access guidance on child sexual abuse prevention.
Available 24/7 on a platform billions already use, Kemi lowers the barrier to seeking help. Whether someone needs information, a safe space to share, or guidance on next steps — Kemi is there. No app download. No waiting. Just help, when it's needed most.

SAFE COMMUNITIES
Lasting protection requires trusted people in every community to be equipped, empowered, and certified. We work directly with the children and young people, leaders, and community figures who shape children's lives — training and certifying them to identify, prevent, and respond to child sexual abuse that is often not recognised or sometimes ignored.
OUR
BOOKS
We have produced two landmark educational books now used by teachers, parents, and child protection professionals across 12 countries on 3 continents — with active plans to scale further globally.
MEASURABLE
CHANGE
OUR
APPROACH
Through seamless cooperation among non-profits, technology companies, telecommunications enterprises, and governmental organizations, we turn the seemingly impossible task of preventing child sexual abuse into the possible.
STRONGER
together.
When experts in child sexual abuse prevention collaborate, they leverage each other's strengths, resources, and expertise to address this complex problem. These synergies foster a more integrated approach — leading to sustainable, scalable outcomes.
We partner with enterprises that share our mission. If your work aligns with eradicating child sexual abuse, we want to hear from you.
