A child victim is a child who has suffered harm as a result of a crime, abuse, neglect, or other form of violence or exploitation. Child victims may have suffered physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, and they may have experienced other forms of harm, such as neglect, exploitation, or discrimination. Child victims often face a range of challenges and difficulties as a result of the harm they have experienced, and they may require support and assistance to recover and heal. Governments and organizations around the world are working to protect the rights of child victims and to provide them with the support and assistance they need.
