Its Origination

In September, shortly after the announcement of arrest of the largest worldwide child pornography ring, & the collaboration of many international law enforcement agencies, UNESCO's Director General, Federico Mayor announced that UNESCO would hold an experts conference in Paris. The focus of the conference would be child pornography, pedophilia & child sexual abuse on the Internet

Experts from around the world were invited to attend. Leaders in online safety from the United States also attended, including The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, The US Department of Justice, WiredPatrol & SOC-UM. Internet experts, law enforcement, content providers & child advocates joined forces to begin a dialogue that would address these issues online & offline.
