Child Safeguarding Week is an annual campaign to promote individual, organisation and community action to prevent child abuse and neglect in Aotearoa.
It provides a platform to increase public awareness about child abuse and neglect, how it occurs and what can be done to prevent it.
The positive is that it CAN be prevented.
Child Safeguarding Week 2025 is placing the online safety and wellbeing of children in the spotlight. Kiwi kids are doing amazing things in the online environment but there are ever increasing risks for them when using this space. This year’s campaign, Parenting in the Digital World, will help you to keep them safe and allow them to continue using this incredible resource with confidence.
