About Raksha
Raksha Al is a suite of Al-driven tools designed to safeguard children across India. The suite addresses three critical child protection challenges.
The first tool reduces vulnerability to child marriage, trafficking, and exploitation by combining geospatial mapping, socio-economic indicators, and historical data to generate district and block-level risk heat maps, enabling proactive outreach and mapping vulnerabilities.
The second strengthens anti-trafficking operations, mapping trafficker movements across source, transit, and destination routes. Leveraging data from over 100,000 cases, it predicts probable locations for missing children and patterns of trafficker activity, optimising law enforcement interventions.
The third tool focuses on child sexual abuse material (CSEAM) intelligence, analysing large digital datasets to identify IP patterns, hotspots, and repeat offenders. By combining machine learning, natural language processing, and network mapping, it converts scattered digital signals into actionable intelligence, supporting faster triage and investigations.
Raksha Al exemplifies predictive, data-driven, and ethical Al to protect children and empower authorities in India.
PROSPERITY FUTURES:
CHILD SAFETY TECH SUMMIT
JRC, in collaboration with its partner India Child Protection, hosted the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) affiliated Prosperity Futures - Child Safety Tech Summit (India Al Pre-Summit Event 2026) on 13 January 2026 in New Delhi.
It brought together various government stakeholders, experts from leading tech companies, international universities and civil society to demonstrate Al's practical role in safeguarding children.
The summit marked the launch of Raksha Al, a suite of three predictive tools designed to analyse data, generate risk-heat maps, and identify vulnerable geographies and emerging threats, providing a proactive approach to child protection and reducing vulnerabilities.
Law enforcement agencies, including the Railway Protection Force and the Cyber Security Bureaus of Maharashtra and Telangana, witnessed the tools in action. Officials recognised Raksha Al's potential to prevent harm at scale, dismantle offender networks, and strengthen the child protection efforts nationwide, enhancing speed, visibility, and intelligence in tackling threats to children.
Speakers emphasised how Al, when guided by ethical principles and responsible use, can shift child protection from reactive responses to data-driven prevention strategies. The summit highlighted the power of cross-sector collaboration, with government agencies, technology experts, and social institutions working together to address real-world challenges.
By showcasing Raksha Al and its predictive capabilities, the event reinforced India's position as a leader in Al for social good. It demonstrated how advanced analytics and innovative technology can translate into tangible child safety outcomes at scale.
