What is happening in Sri Lanka
In Sri Lanka, a disturbing reality exists beneath the surface: between 14-44% of young people experience sexual abuse in childhood. Most know their perpetrator, making the decision to speak up even more complex. Of thousands of cases each year, only a small fraction are reported - just 2,266 to police in 2021. At Emerge, we believe that when a young survivor is brave enough to come forward, they deserve to be embraced by a circle of care and support that enables them to heal, grow, and step into their full potential and power.
