Every Child Protected Against Trafficking (ECPAT UK) is a children's rights organisation working to protect children from trafficking and transnational exploitation.

ECPAT's work extends to:
Youth work - supporting children who have been trafficked and provide expertise in children's cases; Training - delivering rights-based, practical training to build the capacity of professionals and agencies working with children; Research - monitoring the issue and publish cutting-edge research on child trafficking and exploitation, informed by our direct work with trafficked children and the professionals who support them; Awareness raising - working in partnership with other organisations to build a common understanding and to enhance expertise on protecting children from commercial sexual exploitation of children in tourism; and Policy development and legal reform - working with children's rights organisations, anti-trafficking NGOs, child protection agencies, communities and governments to identify strategies to combat child trafficking and the exploitation of children in tourism.
