Connecting to Children A Compilation of Child Helpline Data

Welcome to the 10th edition of Connecting to Children, Child Helpline International’s annual compilation of data from its member child helplines around the world.

Connecting to Children provides a comprehensive overview of the voices of children in need of assistance, care and protection. It documents their concerns and the issues they face, and highlights regional, crossregional and global trends.

Connecting to Children also highlights the importance of child helplines in the lives of children, outlining the services child helplines offer, the different methods of communication used by children to contact child helplines, the profile of children contacting child helplines and, most importantly, the reasons why children (and adults on behalf of children) contact child helplines.

Children trust child helplines and voluntarily contact them to share their questions and to get help. No other child protection entity has access to such direct information on the problems and concerns of children. The data collated by Child Helpline International (CHI) in Connecting to Children is an unprecedented tool to influence key decision makers to take targeted action to improve the lives of children.
