Missing Children Europe is the European federation for missing and sexually exploited children. They represent a network of 30 NGOs in 24 countries. Their mission is to enable the development of effective and holistic child protection systems to: * prevent children from going missing, * support missing children and their families, and * protect children from any risk of violence and abuse that may lead to or result from going missing. It is an organisation which aims to ensure that every EU member state has the necessary procedures and regulations in place to deal with cases of missing and/or sexually exploited children, and are able to both provide support for the victims, and take steps to prevent future disappearances.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mission )〕 Every two minutes, a child is reported missing in the EU.
