The Virtual Global Taskforce brings together law enforcement agencies from around the world to fight online child abuse. If you see inappropriate behaviour online, and /or if you believe that a child may be at risk, you can report this direct to law enforcement via the VGT website. All reports to the Child Exploitation Online are taken seriously and a police officer will get in contact with you.

The Virtual Global Taskforce (VGT) was created in 2003 as a direct response to lessons learned from investigations into on-line child abuse around the world. It is an international alliance of law enforcement agencies working together to make the Internet a safer place.

The mission of the Virtual Global Taskforce is:

• to make the Internet a safer place;

• to identify, locate and help children at risk; and

• to hold perpetrators appropriately to account.

The Virtual Global Taskforce comprises the Australian High Tech Crime Centre, the National Crime Squad for England and Wales, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the US Department of Homeland Security and Interpol.

The Internet Task Force for Child protection on the Internet aims to make the UK the best and safest place in the world for children to use the Internet, and to help protect children the world over from abuse fuelled by criminal misuse of new technologies
