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 organisations 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.

Who is this activity for?

We are looking for professionals and practitioners actively involved in European Solidarity Corps volunteering projects, including:
