Many celebrities have joined the "Opening Eyes" campaign, which aims to raise the chances of child sexual abuse.
"Opening Eyes" Campaign

In recent months, there has been a 41% increase in inquiries regarding child sexual abuse and assault across the country. One in five girls is sexually assaulted, up to one in seven girls is incestuous, and the proportion of sexually abused boys up to the age of 12 is the same as that of girls.
Eighty-five percent of sexual assaults are committed by a person known to the victim, and only 6 percent of sexual assaults are reported to authorities. Every year, more than 200 million children are sexually abused or raped worldwide.
