We are thrilled to welcome you to the SaferGov Forum, a dedicated space for academics, policymakers, and advocates to engage in meaningful discussions about sexual corruption (sextortion). This forum is an integral part of the SaferGov project, a global initiative focused on addressing the multifaceted challenges of sextortion in public service delivery.
What This Forum is About
The SaferGov Forum is more than just a platform—it's a community. Here, we aim to:
Explore the systemic roots and dynamics of sextortion from academic and policy perspectives.
Share evidence-based research and case studies to deepen our understanding of this critical issue.
Collaborate on developing innovative and actionable solutions for mitigating sextortion's impact on governance.
Connect individuals and organizations working to promote transparency, accountability, and justice in public service systems.
How This Forum Fits Into the SaferGov Mission
SaferGov is built on three key pillars:
Research: We provide a foundation of robust, interdisciplinary research on sextortion and its effects on governance and society.
Policy Development: Through collaboration with stakeholders, we design actionable policy recommendations to address sextortion at systemic levels.
Digital Innovation: Leveraging GovTech solutions, such as blockchain and secure reporting mechanisms, we aim to empower victims and enhance public sector integrity.
This forum supports these pillars by fostering dialogue and collaboration among individuals from diverse backgrounds, bringing new insights and solutions to light.
