Let’s get more communities involved in 2023

Chrissy Sykes, the CEO and Founder of the “My Body is My Body” (MBIMB) Programme, is a renowned advocate for child protection. She is also a member of the Distinguished Advisory Council of the International Society for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (ISPCAN) and a trustee of the Askew Foundation. As a celebrated singer and songwriter, Chrissy has made a significant impact in both the music industry and the field of child welfare. Over 34 years ago, she created the My Body is My Body Programme in collaboration with the Departments of Education and Human Services in the United States. She travelled the country, successfully presenting the programme to over 350,000 children. Recognising the potential to reach even more children, Chrissy decided to animate the programme for distribution on the Internet. Today, the programme has been translated into 27 languages and has positively impacted over 2 million children in 60 countries through both online and in-person presentations. With the support of the charity’s dedicated team of worldwide ambassadors and volunteers, MBIMB continues to make a meaningful impact in child protection. Chrissy is committed to creating a safer world for all children. The MBIMB Programme, courses, and resources are all offered free of charge to everyone. This initiative is supported by esteemed organisations such as Rotary International, ISPCAN, Compassion International, and End Violence Against Children. Thanks to the unwavering support from these organisations and many others, MBIMB continues to make a significant difference in the lives of children globally.
