Safeguarding in ESC organisations in practice

Do you want to create a safeguarding policy for your organisation, or strengthen the one you already have? This hands-on activity is aimed to support European Solidarity Corps (ESC) organisations from Italy, Czech Republic and Western Balkans (WB) with Quality Label in creating a safe and secure environment for ESC volunteers.

During this activity, you will:

  • Explore your role, responsibilities, boundaries and limitations in safeguarding situations.
  • Work on real-life case studies and practice-based exercises to gain practical experience.
  • Exchange ideas, challenges and good practices with colleagues from ESC organisations.
  • Learn how to develop a safeguarding policy from your current starting point, or strengthen and refine an existing one.
  • Develop concrete safeguarding actions and implementation plans that you can immediately apply in your organisation.

  • Representatives of organisations with a Quality Label
