Results

The final report will include A. Attention is drawn to the structural conditions of institutions that may promote child abuse.

In the final report in November 2011, it was proposed to develop a supplementary help system for victims of sexual abuse. To implement this recommendation, a Sexual Abuse Fund was set up in May 2013 , in which the federal government contributed 50 million euros, the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania with 1.03 million euros and the Free State of Bavaria with 7.61 million euros.

The “Round Table on Child Sexual Abuse” has not made any recommendations on institutional processing. Occasionally, there are reports within the respective institutions themselves, an overall concept cannot be determined.

criticism

In March and April 2010, there was some criticism of the round table. Wolfgang Donsbach criticized: “I do not consider it a federal policy issue. [...] You might want to put out the fire a little by showing that you care. " Renate Künast criticized even more clearly :" The round table is definitely not the solution. This is a gelatinization, born out of Angela Merkel's efforts to put a cloak of charity over the Catholic Church. "Künast demanded" an independent commission of the Bundestag and a compensation fund ". Georg Ehrmann, Deutsche Kinderhilfe , warned: “The round table must not lead to necessary steps being neglected. The sad story of the round table against alcohol abuse among children and adolescents [...] has shown that round tables also serve to take pressure off a public debate. This must not happen in the face of the overall social challenge of sexual violence against children. " Ursula Enders , one of the founders and now head of Zartbitter , sees the round table as" a helpless attempt ". Heinz Hilgers, President of the German Child Protection Association , said: "It takes me far too long". He feared that the issue would disappear from the public agenda. Norbert Denef , spokesman for netzwerkB , demands that “representatives of the victims are invited to the 'round table against child abuse”. In March 2011, Denef stated in relation to the issue of compensation for victims: “One must also add to the consequences how life and professional careers could have developed if they had not suffered trauma. [...] It cannot be that here in one of the richest industrial nations in the world a person is worth less than, for example, a machine in a factory. Compensation in Germany must be adapted to international standards such as in the USA. ”At the presentation of Christine Bergmann's final report at the victim protection conference in Schwerin on May 25, 2011, representatives of those affected criticized the fact that victims were not sufficiently involved. A self-help association for victims of abuse bears the name Eckiger Tisch , an obvious distinction from the round table .
