The Independent reports on a significant initiative in France where 360 mailboxes have been installed in schools to allow children to confidentially report abuse. This project aims to encourage victims of sexual violence to speak out, providing a crucial channel for support and intervention. The initiative has already yielded results, with some reports leading to police investigations and protective actions being taken for vulnerable children. This effort is part of broader societal measures to combat child abuse and improve reporting mechanisms.
In a nationwide effort to encourage more victims of sexual violence to speak up, mailboxes for children to flag abuse have been set up in schools across France.
Some 360 mailboxes have already been deployed across France, where children can drop letters that will be assessed by experts.
