Over 15,000 victims of sexual violence were assisted or given advice last year by the Centrum Seksueel Geweld (CSG). That reflects an increase of 54 percent compared to the previous year, the center to assist the victims of sexual violence said in its annual report. People were helped in one of their local centers as well as by telephone or chat.
The number of people who contact the CSG has been increasing for some time, but the center noted a “significant increase” in 2022. This is mainly due to the revelations early last year about sexually transgressive behavior behind the scenes of the TV program The Voice of Holland.
