The general research purpose was understanding the utilization of ICT in preventing violence against children in and around schools and developing a model that can be applied by agencies to prevent violence against children. This research adopted a descriptive crosssectional study design that involved quantitative and qualitative methods of data collection; to allow for diversity of views, triangulation, integration of knowledge and in-depth understanding of the ICT phenomenon in preventing and responding to violence against children in and around schools. Quantitative data was collected from 2,232 children aged 12 to 18 years, using semi-structured questionnaires; while qualitative data was collected from 175 parents/caregivers, teachers and other child protection duty bearers, using Key Informant Interviews and Focus Group Discussions. This study was undertaken in four regions of Uganda, in six districts located in an urban or peri-urban/rural setting covering Kampala, Wakiso, Mbale, Lira, Kayunga and Ibanda districts, where children and their families are exposed and have access to mobile phones and computers. The study population included children drawn from 24 purposefully sampled schools, i.e. four from each district.
