None in Three (University of Huddersfield)

Potential perpetrators

Working in partnership with the Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL) and Promundo, both in Brazil, the team, led by Professor Adele Jones and Professor Patricia Tzortzopoulos, will conduct research into online child sexual exploitation and abuse (CSEA). They will use the findings to develop and evaluate ‘Emilio’, an educational video game targeted specifically at young males considered to be at risk of engaging in online abusive behaviour. The game will aim to head off potential online CSEA at its roots by addressing its underlying drivers among those most amenable to change, the young. Because young people are still developing, it is easier to help them modify their thinking patterns and to make the link between emotion and behaviour; essential for violence prevention.
