The main purpose of the report is to present data on crimes committed against children and reported to the SAPS. The report also uses the Governance, Public Safety, and Justice Survey (GPSJS) 2021/22, which is a countrywide household-based survey with a wide scope that ranges from the respondents’ perceptions and experience on crime, corruption, community cohesion, trust in institutions to government’s performance. In this report, households with children are used to measure experience of crime and feelings of safety."
