Title: Child Sexual Abuse in the Eastern Caribbean: The Report of a Study Carried Out Across the Eastern Caribbean During the Period October 2008 to June 2009.

Summary: Although there is extensive international research, few empirical studies of child sexual abuse have been carried out in the Caribbean and there are no reliable data on the prevalence of child sexual abuse, or indeed on attitudes and perceptions of abuse across the region. This study, which was commissioned by the UNICEF Office for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean in a joint programming initiative with UNIFEM, aimed at investigating perceptions of child sexual abuse; exploring attitudes towards the perceptrators of child sexual exploitation; and garnering opinions on the forms of action that might make a difference.
