Stopping Abuse and Exploitation Risks for Children through Innovative Low-cost Delivery

Obiettivo

Childhood sexual abuse is a major global societal challenge, affecting one in five girls worldwide and resulting in severe lifelong health, social, and economic consequences. Despite decades of research, no prevention intervention has previously demonstrated both effectiveness and feasibility for delivery at population scale in low-resource settings.

ERC-funded frontier research has generated a breakthrough solution: ParentApp, a low-cost, digitally delivered parenting intervention shown to substantially reduce childhood sexual abuse. While ERC and related funding have established the scientific validity, content, and technical functionality of ParentApp, its large-scale societal impact now depends on assessing and demonstrating real-world delivery, institutional adoption, and knowledge transfer.

This Proof of Concept is necessary to validate whether this ERC-derived innovation can be embedded within government systems and translated into sustained population-level impact. Government partners in South Africa and other countries are actively seeking scalable digital solutions, international agencies are prepared to support dissemination, and the innovation itself has reached technical maturity. By acting now, this Proof of Concept leverages a unique window in which evidence, technology, and policy readiness align - enabling a decisive transition from groundbreaking research to sustained population-level societal benefit. This grant will allow validation of real-world delivery, institutional integration, and knowledge-transfer pathways.
