International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children

The International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC) is a private, nonprofit organization, established more than 20 years ago.

ICMEC envisions a world where children can grow up safe from exploitation, abuse, or the risk of going missing. We believe every child deserves a safe childhood.

Our mission is to advance child protection and safeguard vulnerable children by:

• powering the global search for children who are missing.
• disrupting the economics and mechanics of commercial child exploitation.
• training frontline professionals to prevent and respond to cases of child abuse and exploitation.
