Conference: “AI and the Fight Against Child Sexual Abuse”

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has fundamentally changed both the opportunities and challenges in the work to prevent child sexual abuse.

Helplines report a sharp increase in AI-generated abuse material, and perpetrators are using AI to groom and reach more children faster. At the same time, AI is also being used to counteract child sexual abuse – among other things, as a law enforcement tool and to lower barriers to support. The same technology can thus become an important part of the solution.

It is precisely this duality that we must discuss – and act upon. Therefore, World Childhood Foundation and ChildX are gathering key stakeholders from authorities, the tech industry, research, the judiciary, and civil society for the conference: “AI and the Fight Against Child Sexual Abuse” (livestream from the Vasa Museum in Stockholm).

During the conference, you will receive:
• an updated overview of how AI is changing child sexual exploitation – both how the technology can be misused and how it can be used in the fight against abuse
• insights from authorities, tech, research, the judiciary, and civil society – to build a common understanding and a shared language across sectors
• a focus on gaps and upcoming challenges – and collaborative work forward with ideas and solutions to prevent and combat abuse

Livestream: March 5, 2026 at 9:00 AM (Europe/Stockholm)
