Fratelli Safeguarding Policy

At Fratelli Project Lebanon, we are fully committed to ensuring the safety, protection, and dignity of every child, youth, and vulnerable adult we serve. Our Safeguarding Policy reflects our zero-tolerance stance on abuse, harassment, and exploitation, and outlines our duty to create a safe and empowering environment for all.

Our Commitment

We uphold a zero-tolerance policy for all forms of abuse, ensuring a secure environment for everyone. Central to our approach is the active participation and inclusion of children and families in their own protection, coupled with unwavering dedication to confidentiality and data protection.

We prioritize the physical and emotional safety of all beneficiaries.

We promote respect, dignity, and the right to participate in decisions affecting one's own safety.

We enforce a strict code of conduct for all staff, volunteers, visitors, and partners.

We adhere to both international and Lebanese standards, including Law 422/2002 and the UN convention on the Rights of the Child.
