Safeguarding systems
Maintain clear codes of conduct, reporting procedures and response responsibilities.
Child protection must be built into every part of the Foundation’s work—from program design and volunteer conduct to photography, data handling, referrals and partnerships.
Protection is not a separate concern that begins after harm occurs. It should shape how programs are designed, delivered, documented and evaluated.
The Foundation should use clear safeguarding procedures, appropriate consent, risk assessment and safe reporting channels across all child-focused work.
Where specialist intervention is required, cases should be handled through qualified professionals and legitimate local protection systems.
Each program area can be expanded with real projects, locations, timelines, budgets and updates.
Maintain clear codes of conduct, reporting procedures and response responsibilities.
Design activities so children can participate without unnecessary exposure to risk.
Protect names, photographs, locations and personal information appropriately.
Use qualified protection, social service or legal partners when specialist support is needed.
Screen, train and supervise volunteers according to the level of responsibility.
Ensure partner organizations meet appropriate safeguarding expectations.
Programs should be community-informed, safeguarding-aware and accountable from planning through reporting.
Identify foreseeable risks before children participate in a program or communication activity.
Train staff and volunteers and establish clear reporting responsibilities.
Use confidential, survivor-centered procedures when a concern is raised.
Review incidents, near misses and feedback to strengthen future safeguarding.
Only publish figures that can be supported by project records or approved reports.
Track completion by relevant staff, volunteers and partners.
Maintain documented, appropriate consent for child-focused communications and activities.
Confirm that safe reporting channels and responsible persons are in place.
Your support can help strengthen safe program delivery, safeguarding systems, responsible referrals and protective environments for children.
