Pornography education

Pornography Education Perth Western Australia

We can all play a role in the care, safety and protection of children.

eSafeKids provides Reducing The Harm: Talking About Pornography workshops and throughout metropolitan and regional Australia and internationally. These workshops can be delivered face-to-face at your location or online as a webinar.

The ubiquity of the internet and more recently portable electronic devices, has transformed the way pornography is accessed and how pornography accesses children and young people. Whilst pornography is not new, the nature and accessibility of pornography had changed considerably. The way we approach this topic, therefore, needs to be different. In the absence of adequate education in the home, school and wider community, pornography is the primary and in many cases the only education children and young people receive about human relationships and sexuality.

We strive to reduce and prevent harm through proactive and preventative education, supporting and inspiring parents, carers, educators and other professionals to talk with children, young people and vulnerable adults about pornography.

"Wish schools taught this more. Like how she got to tell us as it is true. We don't get taught the importance, impacting on topics such as porn. Straight to the point, liked how facts backed up her information."
