Theme: Child Abuse & Neglect in Asian Countries: Challenges & Opportunities

The International Society for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (ISPCAN) and the Indian Child Abuse and Neglect and Child Labor Group (ICANCL) are honored to invite you to attend the 9^th ISPCAN Asia Pacific Regional Conference on Child Abuse & Neglect (APCCAN). This event will be held from October 6-9, 2011 in New Delhi, the beautiful & historic capital of India.

Asia is home to the largest share of the world's children. Our problem across the continent is that this is not always a safe and secure place for every child. Asia is also home to some of the world's fastest-growing economies. The challenge is to ensure that economic growth does not forget the imperative of public good. If the child's status and condition is always a true indicator of wise development, the child's safety and security – at home and in the wider society – is arguably a critical measure of both status and dignity. The theme Child Abuse & Neglect in Asian Countries: Challenges & Opportunities,” will provide the opportunity to further examine the wider implications of child abuse and neglect.
