One in five girls and one in seven boys will experience some form of sexual violence before their 18th birthday. These statistics are shocking, and high-quality data is crucial for driving tangible change and reducing these numbers.

In this episode, we learn more about the Violence Against Children and Youth Surveys (VACS), the largest source of data on violence against children worldwide. We’re joined by two women who have worked intensively on the VACS programme: Laura Chiang, Lead Epidemiologist at the Division of Violence Prevention at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Daniela Ligiero, CEO and President of Together for Girls.

Together, we explore how the nationally representative VACS surveys provide ground-breaking insights into childhood and young adult violence, we discuss how this vital information can inform effective interventions and highlight inspiring success stories from countries that have implemented VACS surveys.

Your guests are:

Laura Chiang, US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Daniela Ligiero, CEO and President of Together for Girls.

Your host is:

Ayesha Mago, Global Advocacy Director, SVRI
