Report of The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse

The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse was an inquiry in Australia that investigated how institutions like churches, schools, and sports clubs responded to allegations of child sexual abuse. The report detailed widespread misconduct, revealing failures to protect children and to appropriately address abuse when it was reported. It provided recommendations to improve prevention, reporting, and accountability, aiming to ensure safer environments for children and to hold institutions more responsible for protecting vulnerable individuals.
