Webinar presented by Douglas Russell, Senior Research Officer, Institute of Child Protection Studies, 24 September 2024

Douglas Russell presented findings from interviews with adults in the Catholic Church, including clergy, school teachers, laity and other church-related roles. He gave details about the kinds of participants who took part in the survey, and the differences between clergy and laypeople. Interestingly, higher knowledge correlates with lower confidence to act. This has implications not just in faith-based institutions but in all sectors.
