ALUNA hosts key training & pilot session to strengthen fight against child sexual abuse

The ALUNA project, dedicated to the critical mission of combating Child Sexual Abuse (CSA), recently hosted an instrumental training and pilot session in Athens. This event signifies a major step in the project’s progression, with Idener at the helm of the technical work package, playing a vital role in the orchestration of the development efforts by the project’s technical partners.

Pablo Gallegos from IDENER.AI, who leads the technical direction of the project, works in close collaboration with the University Complutense Madrid (UCM), the project’s coordinator. Together, they ensure that the tools being developed are put through rigorous testing, with a focus on practical application throughout the project’s timeline.

The Athens session was particularly advantageous, as it provided an authentic environment for the end-users, primarily Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs), to engage directly with the newly developed tools. Such hands-on experience is crucial for obtaining genuine feedback, which is invaluable in fine-tuning the tools to better serve the needs of LEAs in their daily endeavors to tackle CSA.

The feedback gathered from these end-users is a cornerstone of the project, driving the technical partners to refine and improve the tools with precision. This iterative cycle of development, testing, and enhancement ensures that the solutions devised by the ALUNA project are not only technologically advanced but also user-centric and operationally sound, greatly benefiting law enforcement in their vital work.

As the ALUNA project continues to evolve, the dedication to creating impactful, practical tools for LEAs remains steadfast. This training and pilot session in Athens marks a significant step forward in the project’s journey to empower LEAs with the best resources to protect children and combat the scourge of CSA.
