Safeguarding

The need for safeguarding in organisations or institutions; Non-Governmental Organisations; Community-Based Organisations or Civil Society in general cannot be overemphasized. Safeguarding issues are increasingly becoming mandatory as pressure mounts on institutions to ensure measures are in place to prevent sexual harassment; abuse and exploitation. Across the globe; every organisation needs a safeguarding policy and employees/staff/management should be knowledgeable on what safeguarding is; what needs to be done to ensure safe environment for all; and last but not least; develop knowledge of how to design a safeguarding policy and how to implement it effectively. This is the thrust behind this course.
