Child Cyberpornography in EU Countries: The Ways of Protecting Children’s Integrity

Abstract

European countries have made significant progress in strengthening their legal frameworks and policies to prevent and combat child cyberpornography. However, effective prevention and combat efforts require a comprehensive and coordinated approach that involves sharing information and intelligence across borders, cooperating in investigations and prosecutions, and providing support to victims and their families. The research will be conducted using a mixed-methods approach, including both quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis. The paper, examines the legal measures taken by European countries to prevent and combat child cyberpornography. It analyzes the legal frameworks and policies in different European countries, the challenges faced in implementing and enforcing these legal measures, and the effectiveness of these measures in combatting child cyberpornography. The effectiveness of measures such as age verification, content moderation, and reporting mechanisms will be analyzed to determine their impact on preventing child cyberpornography. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is also becoming increasingly important in preventing and combatting cyberpornography involving children. From the other side, interstate cooperation can also play a critical role in promoting international education and awareness-raising efforts to prevent child cyberpornography.
