Abstract
This chapter will highlight research and practice internationally on ways to educate the public regarding sex abuse and how successful they have been. The chapter will cover issues including the relationship between experts and the public, public criminology, media narratives as well as engagement and political positions, and debates, on this topic. The chapter will highlight ways in which society has tried to engage on the topic of sexual harm (including, bystander intervention, government programmes and grass root drives like reclaim the night) and how successful they have been academically, socially and politically. The chapter will end with a discussion of the current state of research and evaluation on this topic and were to go next.
