CPP Brazil Showcase Event in Sao Luis

On June 16 and 17, 2011, while in Brazil to facilitate the law enforcement exchange tour in Sao Paulo and Brasilia, CPP held two showcase events with its Brazil partners to highlight the successes of CPP Brazil and its partners. The second showcase event, which was hosted by Plan International Brazil, was held in São Luis. It was attended by 67 children and adolescents and 40 adults, including representatives from Military Police, Dial 100 helpline, the Secretariats of Education, Culture and Public Safety, Guardianship Councils, and a number of public prosecutors.

The event featured presentations from various groups, including CPP, Plan and the youth participants. The young people presented skits, artwork, photos and slideshows on the work they did with CPP in their communities. Afterwards, there were further discussions about ICT safety among the adults and young people.

The event was highly successful and engaged children and adolescents and adults in discussions about the work being done to prevent ICT enabled child sexual exploitation. Most importantly, children and adolescents were given a platform to share their experiences and opinions.
