Protecting children in New Zealand and overseas

Tim Houston is the Manager of the Digital Child Exploitation Team at the Department of Internal Affairs. Launched in 2019, Tim and his team led an international operation investigating offences relating to online child sexual exploitation and abuse. It identified over 90,000 online accounts possessing or trading child sexual abuse material. In New Zealand alone, 71 suspects were identified, 46 arrested with further investigations ongoing. In this podcast, Willow (Safeguarding Children CEO) talks to Tim about his work protecting children in New Zealand and overseas.
