Mae’n 10 mlynedd bellach ers i Lywodraeth Cymru gyhoeddi’r canllawiau statudol cyntaf mewn perthynas â chamfanteisio’n rhywiol ar blant yng Nghymru. Dros y degawd diwethaf, rydym wedi dysgu drwy waith ymchwil ac arfer am y ffyrdd mwyaf effeithiol o atal problem cam-drin a chamfanteisio’n rhywiol ar blant, diogelu plant sydd mewn perygl a chefnogi plant a phobl ifanc i ddod dros camdriniaeth. Datblygwyd y canllawiau ar y cyd â grŵp cynghori amlasiantaethol, dan gadeiryddiaeth Dr Sophie Hallett o Brifysgol Caerdydd, a ystyriodd y dystiolaeth hon. Yn bwysig iawn, mae’r canllawiau yn seiliedig hefyd ar dystiolaeth y plant a’r bobl ifanc eu hunain.
It is now 10 years since the Welsh Government published the first statutory guidance on child sexual exploitation for Wales. Over the past decade, we have learnt from research and practice about the most effective ways to prevent abuse through child sexual exploitation, to protect children at risk and to support children and young people into recovery from abuse. The guidance was developed with a multi-agency advisory group, chaired by Dr Sophie Hallett, Cardiff University, which considered this evidence. Importantly the guidance is also informed by evidence from children and young people themselves.
