In consultation with educators, ECPAT has created conversation cards to support you in your work with children and teens. Through this card game we would like to share our knowledge on issues such as sexual exploitation and sexual abuse of children online. We hope that this will be a useful tool for example teachers or school counsellors, to help handle the challenges and difficulties associated with these issues.
As someone working with children and teens you are well-positioned to provide information about rights, consent and which actions may be illegal – both to prevent children from becoming victims and to prevent them from victimising others. You also have an important role in showing children and teens that adults want to understand the reality of their lives and that you are there as an adult, safe to talk to, if something should happen.
After you have used ECPAT’s Guide for teachers, the card game will serve as a tool to keep the conversation going on consent, nude pictures and other things that children and teens may be wondering about and encountering in their daily lives. It can be used in groups in the classroom or in other contexts where students come together.
You can download the card game as a PDF and print it. Print it double-sided, laminate it if you can and cut it into cards.

Awareness is lacking among adults about how technical development has affected the way young […]
“Girls need to stop sending pictures” is a report about boys and their attitudes and behaviour with respect to nude photos, intimacy, sexual offences and age differences. The report’s findings include that boys place much of the blame on girls and think that girls shouldn’t let themselves be pressured into things. This is even more […]
ECPAT’s report “Everything that is not a yes is a no” is about children´s everyday exposure to sexual crimes and their protective strategies. The report is based on ECPAT’s survey “Nude Online” (Nude på nätet 2021) in which almost 13,000 children participated, between the ages of 10-17 years. In the survey children have shared their […]
