Welcome to the National Centre’s Child Sexual Abuse Register of Active Research.
You can search the register, as well as submit a project for inclusion.
This national register houses research and quality improvement projects currently underway across Australia which investigate a range of topics associated with child sexual abuse. The register aims to capture research activities that contribute to our collective understanding of, and responses to, child sexual abuse in Australia, including prevention, service delivery, and support for victims and survivors.
This resource is an accessible overview of who’s doing what, providing real-time mapping of current child sexual abuse research activity across Australia. These graphics are interactive – you can click on elements to learn more about the research that is currently underway.
To promote and capture your current research on child sexual abuse, please submit your project to the register.
