Safeguarding Chilrdren and Young People Policy – Plan International

“This manual describes Plan’s approach to safeguarding which requires the application of a gender and intersectional lens. It highlights the potential impact of power and bias (within both the organisation and individuals) on our ability to safeguard children and young people effectively. The manual can be used to support the organisation, its staff and associates in continually challenging ourselves to do all we can to safeguard girls, boys and young people in all their diversity.”
This manual is designed to explain the basics of safeguarding that need to be in place in order to deliver safe programming. These basics include “elements such as safe recruitment practices, safeguarding briefings, induction and capacity building programmes for staff, partners and associates. It entails clear management accountability for implementing safeguarding measures and practices, as well as documented procedures for reporting and responding to safeguarding concerns, guidance and standards on use of images, and so on.”
