Since we began our investigation into the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ systemic cover-up of child sexual abuse in 2015, conversations have ignited around the globe about how to bring these secrets to the public.

Media outlets across Europe and North America have covered the scandal. Government commissions in England and Australia have launched investigations. The Jehovah’s Witnesses have been sued by survivors of abuse and violated court orders to hand over a database of alleged child abusers going back decades.

So how has this religion managed to stonewall the legal system and continue to shield alleged abusers from exposure and prosecution?

Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting invites you to join an international convening of key experts and stakeholders in London on April 26.

You’ll hear from panels with former Jehovah’s Witnesses, abuse survivors, lawyers, psychologists, journalists, lawmakers and law enforcement representatives. And you’ll have a chance to weigh in.

As an independent, nonpartisan journalism organization, we’ll facilitate candid discussions about effective ways to address the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ ongoing child safety crisis – and how to turn facts into positive change for children at risk of further abuse.
