UNDERSTANDING AND RESPONDING TO CHILD SEXUAL EXPLOITATION

The issue of child sexual exploitation (CSE) has received intense scrutiny in recent years, following a number of high profile legal cases, serious case reviews and inquiries. This has resulted in increasing expectations that those working in the field will know how to appropriately manage and respond to this form of abuse. Of course, this is no easy task given the widely acknowledged difficulties of identifying and responding to sexual abuse and the particular complexities associated with the gain dynamic within CSE and the predominantly older age of children affected by it.

This edited collection draws on the latest research evidence and academic thinking around CSE to consider issues of understanding and response. Written by researchers from The International Centre: Researching child sexual exploitation, violence and trafficking at the University of Bedfordshire, Part I considers issues of understanding and conceptualisation. Part II considers the practical implications of some of this thinking, sharing learning from research and evaluation on prevention, identification and response.

Understanding and Responding to Child Sexual Exploitation presents critical learning for academics and students, and for those working in the fields of policy, practice and commissioning. It is relevant to a wide range of disciplines including social care, youth work, education, criminology, health and social policy.

Helen Beckett is Director of The International Centre: Researching child sexual exploitation, violence and trafficking and a Reader in Child Protection and Childrens Rights at the University of Bedfordshire, UK. She has twenty years experience of undertaking and managing applied social research across academia and the voluntary and statutory sectors. She holds particular specialism in CSE and related adolescent safeguarding issues, and in ethics around engaging vulnerable individuals in sensitive research. Dr Beckett has published and presented widely on issues of sexual harm against children and regularly consults on research, policy and practice in this field.
