Safeguarding and accountability

Every action we take must protect the safety and dignity of the people we serve. We hold zero tolerance for sexual exploitation, abuse and harassment.

Our commitments

Safeguarding and the protection from sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA) are built into our governance, recruitment, partnerships and field operations. We apply twelve cross-cutting commitments to every programme and partnership:

  • Do no harm
  • Gender
  • Diversity and inclusion
  • Protection
  • PSEA
  • Accountability
  • Disability inclusion
  • Youth voice
  • Localization
  • Climate and environment
  • Conflict sensitivity
  • Evidence and learning

Report a safeguarding concern

If you have a concern about the behaviour of anyone working for or with Verdantrise, or about the safety of someone we serve, tell us. Reports are handled confidentially.

Feedback and complaints

We want to hear from communities, partners and the public about our work, including when we get something wrong. Feedback helps us improve and is part of how we stay accountable.
