Gathering at Oberstown: Insights and Developments from the Children Detention Campus Meeting

The first DATA MOSAIC meeting held at the Oberstown Children Detention Campus provided a platform for discussions on safeguarding imprisoned children from violence. Participants emphasised the need to protect incarcerated children and address specific vulnerabilities faced by marginalised groups, including girls and LGBTQ+ children. The discussions resonated with the European Commission's advocacy for better data collection on gender-based violence. The meeting reiterated the significance of protecting children in detention from violence and ensuring their safety, aligning with the overarching goals of the DATA MOSAIC project.
