ECPAT Luxembourg asbl

What ECPAT Luxembourg asbl does

ECPAT Luxembourg asbl is a non-governmental organization (NGO) headquartered in Luxembourg City at 3, rue des Bains, founded in 1995 and operating under the High Patronage of Her Royal Highness the Grand Duchess. The organization has held official ONGD (NGO development organization) status approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 1999, and is a member of the global ECPAT International network, which comprises 112 members across 104 countries. Its mission is to end the commercial sexual exploitation of children (CSEC), addressing child prostitution, child sexual abuse material (CSAM), trafficking of children for sexual purposes, and early/forced marriage. The organization employs 16 staff distributed across its Luxembourg headquarters, a Mali coordination office, and a Nepal coordination office serving as the South Asia regional hub.

ECPAT Luxembourg's product and program portfolio spans reporting infrastructure, awareness campaigns, and field rehabilitation programs. The flagship digital offering is the childprotection.lu reporting platform — a national portal enabling citizens and residents of Luxembourg to report suspected exploitation, built in collaboration with five Luxembourg ministries and routed to Police Grand-Ducale, EUROPOL, and INTERPOL. Field programs include the Mali Child Sex Trafficking Prevention Project targeting gold mining sites in Kokoyo and Koflatiè, the MUKTI South Asia anti-trafficking initiative across India/Nepal/Bangladesh (including the Swift Wash social-enterprise laundromat), the "Together for Protection" project in Nepal, and the Women Rehabilitation and Leadership Program. Educational products include the multilingual "Dis-moi qui tu es" comic series and the Training Resource Kit for child-sex tourism prevention. The organization operates with no proprietary technology stack beyond the reporting portal and standard web/social channels.

The revenue model is grant and donation driven: tax-deductible contributions via bank transfer, PayPal, and Digicash, alongside institutional funding from the Luxembourg Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the European Union, and UN agencies (UNICEF, IOM, ILO/IPEC). The organization does not sell products or services; distribution is executed through a network of field implementing partners — Shakti Samuha in Nepal, ACESEM/CASE SAHEL/ENDA MALI/RAO in Mali, and ARZ (Aashray) in India — rather than via direct service delivery. Cumulative impact metrics cited by the organization include 400,000+ children aided and protected, 22 major projects implemented, and 50+ global partners.
