Safeguarding childhood is a shared responsibility.

Preventing childhood sexual violence is not the work of one organisation alone. It calls for collective action from families, communities, institutions, governments, and the private sector.

At Arpan, we believe prevention is possible when we work together and when we change the way we talk about child safety. With this belief, we are proud to support Growing Up Safe, a newly launched narrative and messaging guide by @tozeroorg co-developed with Spitfire Strategies.

The guide offers practical tools to help organisations shift narratives from reaction to prevention, from fear to solutions, and from silence to collective action. It reminds us that the stories we tell shape what people believe is possible.

By choosing hopeful, prevention-focused narratives, we can reduce stigma, inspire action, and move closer to a world where every child grows up safe.

📣 Last week, SRA Network Coordinator @jujuca1987 took part in a @tozeroorg skills-strengthening session in #Paris, focused on reframing narratives around child sexual violence.

The session created space to engage deeply with Growing Up Safe — To Zero’s narrative guide to prevent child sexual violence — and to explore ethical storytelling practices grounded in prevention, solutions, collective action, and hope.

These conversations also resonate strongly within the sport context, where discussions about abuse and violence are often avoided or pushed to the margins. Shifting this narrative means clearly communicating why #SafeSport matters and affirming sport as a space that dignifies the experiences of all participants. Achieving this requires collective responsibility and sustained action to confront the systemic nature of abuse in sport. ⚽

Momentum is building. Solutions are scaling. Survivors are leading. 🌟

Now we need a narrative that matches this moment.

Today, we're launching 📖 Growing Up Safe — a new narrative and messaging guide designed to help advocates and practitioners shift the conversation toward prevention, solutions, collective action, and hope. ✨

Co-developed with Spitfire Strategies and informed by survivors, advocates, and practitioners worldwide, this guide includes:
✅ An overview of dominant narratives — and how to shift them
✅ High-level messaging you can adapt
✅ Real-world examples and activities
✅ Curated resources

A heartfelt thank you 🙏 to everyone who contributed to make this guide possible. Now it's out in the world to be used!

Together, we can and will build a bright future, one where every child and young person can live safe and healthy lives. 💛

✨ Why do you do what you do?

That was the question we asked at the first Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children last year.

The answers came together in the shape of a heart:
💙 "For childhood without fear"
💙 "So all children can thrive"
💙 "So every child can achieve their dreams"
💙 "All children and young people deserve a trauma-free childhood"
💙 "Because everything starts with “safe”"
💙 "To transform trauma and heal generations"
💙 "Because we have all been a child”
💙 “Love"

Each response is more than words — it’s a commitment. Together, they fuel a collective effort toward safety, dignity, justice, and hope.

🌍 On this World Children’s Day, we celebrate not only why we do this work, but also the collective power of our shared vision: a world where every child can thrive.

Let’s keep shining hope. Let’s keep the heart beating strong.

📅 Today marks the World Day for the Prevention of and Healing from Child Sexual Exploitation, Abuse, and Violence.

On this day, let’s remind ourselves that every one of us has a role to play in safeguarding childhood — because it truly takes a village to raise a child. And when children grow up safe and joyful, entire communities flourish and thrive🌱.

🤝Join us in this effort.

✨ Two years ago, we gathered to dream of a different future for children. The To Zero journey began.

In October 2023, in Cheshunt, stakeholders from around the world came together for the first time to imagine a world free from sexual violence.

From there, 12 workshops held across 8 countries brought together 330+ leaders from 50+ organizations to create not just a vision, but a roadmap to get there.

💜 Look how far we've come:
🧭 A shared vision and strategic roadmap to end childhood sexual violence
🌍 330+ leaders from 50+ organizations shaping A Vision To Zero
🌱 190+ individuals now part of our global To Zero community

This is only the beginning. Together, we’re building a global community to end childhood sexual violence.

🫂 Join us in building a world where every child can thrive.

Today is World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, an international day of observance to raise awareness of human trafficking and promote the protection of the rights of trafficking victims. According to the @unitednations, one in every three trafficking victims globally is a child. No society should accept that.

Today and every day, we stand with survivors. By bringing #AVisionToZero to life, we can ensure every child grows up safe, supported, and free from the harms of trafficking and sexual violence. A better world is possible, but only if we're united together.

🫂 Join us in building a world where every child can thrive.

Today marks the first-ever International Day of Hope ✨

When To Zero began its journey two years ago, we invited people to imagine what a world where all children can live safe and healthy lives would truly look like.

What emerged was A Vision To Zero — not from one voice, but from the hearts and minds of leaders, activists, and researchers who believe that tomorrow can be better. 💙

The path forward isn't easy, but we have something powerful: a growing body of evidence and the unwavering commitment of people determined to make that better future a reality. #Together. 🤝

Thank you to everyone who supports A Vision To Zero.

Let's keep choosing hope. Let's keep moving forward. 🌟
