The Brave Movement Global Survivors Action Summit

Led by fifteen adult survivors of childhood sexual violence and allied organisations, the new global Brave Movement is taking collective action to achieve bold and transformational laws, programs and policies to demand an end to childhood sexual abuse.

The Global Survivors Action Summit on April 27 will mark the first moment in which the Brave Movement will come together, as survivors and all allies, to align demands on ending child sexual violence and place it as a global priority.

The Summit is hosted by international journalist and broadcaster Femi Oke, and survivors leaders including:

• Lawyer, psychologist and human rights advocate, Brisa de Angulo
• Executive Director and CEO of Together for Girls Daniela Ligiero 
• Political scientist and member of the German Council of Survivors, Wibke Müller
• Scottish actor, writer and activist, Matthew McVarish
• Consent educator and child sexual abuse prevention specialist, Rosalia Rivera
• with contributions from our allies WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, President of the Oak Foundation Douglas Griffiths
• And many more… 

The summit will witness adult survivors of childhood sexual violence express their experiences and demand what is needed to end childhood sexual violence. Dozens of countries are finalising their national calls to action, which will become a set of unified global demands to end childhood sexual violence. 

Through and beyond the Summit, the Brave Movement is building an international advocacy movement of survivors and allies to mobilize billions of dollars for programs of prevention, healing and justice around the world; abolish Statutes of Limitation in every nation across the world; and develop a child-rights driven approach to online end-to-end encryption.
