Child Sexual Abuse Protection Movement:
Sexual abuse of children is
fundamentally based on various types and levels of power imbalances
(physical, class, gender, age, economic, social, political etc.) between
the parties involved. It is an abuse of trust within the confines of an
established distorted relationship where the abuser uses various forms of
grooming and manipulation to get to his desired. Children cannot give
informed consent to enter into a sexual relationship with an adult. There
will always be a power imbalance and a lack of awareness in regard to the
child’s physical, emotional, social and psychological development. A
person they know abuses the vast majority of the children, who are
sexually abused, in most likeliness.
Rainbow Nari O Shishu Kallyan
Foundation puts fundamental importance in combating all forms of sexual
abuse on children and any such exploitation. The organization’s
