Safeguarding seminar

Member organizations and their south partners are invited to a virtual safeguarding seminar and launch of CKU’s new Safeguarding Policy.

The purpose of the policy is to ensure that all people are treated with respect, dignity and worth and to avoid negative effects and harm for project recipients and partners in project activities supported by CKU.

The seminar will be led by safeguarding expert Mette Honore who will introduce the subject. Mette Honore has worked 30 years at Danish Refugee Council and today she has her own company “Safe Standards” where she works as a consultant in safeguarding and investigation.

CKU looks forward to inviting you on board in the process of ensuring accountability and protection for project recipients and partners.
