    • Opplærings‐ og informasjonstiltak for barn og unge for å forebygge og avdekke vold, overgrep og krenkelser: en systematisk kartleggingsoversikt 

      Blaasvær, Nora; Baiju, Nikita (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2019)
      Mange barn som vokser opp med vold, overgrep og krenkelser i hjemmet kjenner ingen annen virkelighet. De vet ofte ikke at det de erfarer ikke er greit, og har dermed ikke kunnskapen de behøver for å be om hjelp. For eldre barn og ungdommer kan det være vanskelig å vite hvor grensene for hva som er overgrep går. Forskning viser at barn og ungdom som blir utsatt for vold og seksuelle overgrep har ...
