Prioritizing safety
RED NOSES brings humour and laughter to people in need of joy. Furthermore, we foster the overall wellbeing of everyone we work with. Above all, our safeguarding policy NGO framework ensures safe environments for children and vulnerable persons in all our programmes.
Indeed, RED NOSES recognises the utmost importance of keeping children and vulnerable persons safe. We ensure they are protected from maltreatment and anything detrimental to their health and development. This applies within our organisation as well as with our partners.
Moreover, we do not tolerate any form of child abuse, exploitation, neglect or violation of a child's or vulnerable person's privacy and rights.

Our commitment to protection
Therefore, RED NOSES introduced a streamlined Children and Vulnerable Persons Safeguarding (CVPS) Policy. Its purpose is to minimise the risk of violence and abuse. Furthermore, all employees, freelancers, partners and collaborators must comply with this policy. As a result, they fully commit to reporting any incident of potential abuse immediately.
Our safeguarding policy NGO framework focuses on four key areas:
- Awareness: We strengthen the capacities of RED NOSES artists and staff to prevent abuse and recognise signs of it.
- Prevention: Additionally, we teach tools and mechanisms to prevent abuse before it occurs.
- Reporting: Moreover, a trained Safeguarding Team carefully and responsibly assesses any reported safeguarding concern.
- Responding: Finally, we have clear mechanisms to take concrete actions and decisions in response to assessment results.
Do you have a child or vulnerable person safeguarding concern to report?
