This article reviews the legal framework, as well as the current state and prospects for expanding cooperation between the EU member-states in fight against sexual abuse and exploitation of children. Protection of children from sexual exploitation and countering the spread of child pornography is on the agenda of the EU member-states. Conceptual analysis is conducted on the content of fundamental international normative legal acts that regulate the issues of protection of children from sexual abuse and exploitations. Attention is also focused on preventing the spread of child pornography through modern information technologies. The author underlines the need to improve the designated normative legal framework in the sphere of ensuring the information security of the minors on the Internet. The important role of the United Nations in establishing the policy for combating sexual exploitation of minors and sale of pornographic products that involve children is indicated. It is claimed that in modern world, the international cooperation, including the issues of crime prevention, is the foundation of ensuring human rights, freedoms, and security in various spheres of social. The author makes recommendations on the development of the key directions for consolidating the efforts of the EU member-states in fight against sexual exploitation of children and the spread of child pornography.

With the gazetting of the Regulations of the Child Care and Protection Act 3 of 2015, on 30 January 2019, a crucial regulatory piece of children’s rights in Namibia has finally been operationalised. However, the Act insufficiently addresses new emerging online offences against children such as the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material, and hence leaves a considerable gap in the protection of children’s rights. As the Namibian Constitution follows a monist approach to international law, this article argues that the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography can be directly applied to complement the national legal framework to prosecute cases of possessing and disseminating child sexual abuse material, while upholding fair-trial principles.

Currently, self-consumption and distributed energy facilities are considered as viable and sustainable solutions in the energy transition scenario within the European Union. In a low carbon society, the exploitation of renewables for self-consumption is closely tied to the energy market at the territorial level, in search of a compromise between competitiveness and the sustainable exploitation of resources. Investments in these facilities are highly sensitive to the existence of favourable conditions at the territorial level, and the energy policies adopted in the European Union have contributed positively to the distributed renewables development and the reduction of their costs in the last decade. However, the number of the installed facilities is uneven in the European Countries and those factors that are more determinant for the investments in self-consumption are still under investigation. In this scenario, this paper presents the main results obtained through the analysis of the determinants in self-consumption investments from a case study in Spain, where the penetration of this type of facilities is being less relevant than in other countries. As a novelty of this study, the main influential drivers and barriers in self-consumption are classified and analysed from the installers' perspective. On the basis of the information obtained from the installers involved in the installation of these facilities, incentives and barriers are analysed within the existing legal framework and the potential specific lines of the promotion for the effective deployment of self-consumption in an energy transition scenario.
