Preventing child maltreatment: a guide to taking action and generating evidence

 WHO and the International Society for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (ISPCAN) have prepared the world's first ever international guide on how to prevent child maltreatment. Preventing child maltreatment: a guide to taking action and generating evidence is aimed at helping to expand the number of studies into the magnitude and consequences of the maltreatment problem, and to increase investment in large-scale experimental studies of programmes to prevent the maltreatment of children aged 0-14 years.
