Plan Ireland Child Protection Policy

Plan recognises the rights of all children within our care to be protected from harm in accordance with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.  Unfortunately all children are potentially at risk from abuse and exploitation by adults. Everyone has a responsibility and a role in protecting children and it is essential that we follow all practical and reasonable steps to counteract any risk to the children within our care.

Our global child protection mission is to:

“Create ‘child safe’ environments – internally and externally – where children are respected, protected empowered and active in their own protection, and where staff are skilled, confident, competent and well supported in meeting their protection responsibilities through clear policies, procedures and good practise”
