A CELCIS Emerging Insights Series Webinar:
Hidden in Plain Sight: Solutions to Protecting Teenagers from Exploitation and Harm
In this webinar we heard from Anne Longfield CBE, Chair of the Commission on Young Lives, which reported in England last November with a national action plan and recommendations to support vulnerable teenagers to succeed and to protect them from adversity, exploitation and harm. The webinar looked at what the Commission's findings mean for child protection now by putting a spotlight on:
- What we know about the exploitation of teenagers in the UK today
- The findings from the work of the Commission on Young Lives
- The possible solutions to protecting young people from such harm which is hidden in plain sight
