One model, six countries: Sweden's Barnahus keeps travelling

15 Sept. 2026 · Sweden

Sweden's Barnahus model — multidisciplinary one-stop centres that co-locate police, social services, prosecution and child psychiatry for child victims of sexual abuse — now has 6 documented adoptions in Evidoria's records. The original Swedish practice rests on a quasi-experimental evaluation, one of Evidoria's stronger designs, which found conviction rates 20–45% higher in jurisdictions with a Barnahus than without. Evidoria has evidence-assessed 1 of 1 practices in this record and flags it as sitting on a strong design. These adoption counts reflect what Evidoria has been able to document, not the full universe of Barnahus-style centres worldwide.
