THE ALDERS UNIT NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2026

The theme of this year's conference is Prevention . We will hear and learn from global experts, leaders in the field, Alders staff and survivors on how prevention is at the heart of intervention. The conference will explore how we can tackle child sexual violence, we will hear about the evidence of what has worked in other countries. We will hear from Alders staff about the importance of interventions in preventing secondary traumatisation. There will be lots of inspiring conversations.

The Alders mission statement: “Supporting children, young people and their families to heal from child sexual abuse and work to create an Ireland free from sexual violence against children”.
