Child safety policy
Every child deserves respect, privacy and protection.
These public principles reflect the scope of the original child-safety page. A formally approved policy document can be published when supplied by the organisation.Our commitment
Safety is a practice, not a paragraph.
Everyone representing Shiksha Se Shakti should act in the child's best interest, maintain appropriate boundaries, protect personal information and report concerns through responsible channels.

Safe reporting
Concerns should be documented carefully and shared only with people responsible for an appropriate response.
Confidentiality
Names, photographs, locations and personal histories require careful handling and appropriate consent.
Responsible referral
When a concern needs statutory or specialised action, the organisation should connect with qualified services.
Awareness
Volunteers and team members need clear guidance on recognising risk and maintaining safe boundaries.
Accountability
Safeguarding concerns must never be hidden to protect reputation, fundraising or programme targets.
Policy scope
Protection applies to everyone around a child.
Who it covers
Employees, volunteers, interns, consultants, partners, board members and anyone representing Shiksha Se Shakti.
Expected response
Immediate reporting through a designated private channel, unbiased handling, appropriate action and access to care for an affected child.
Legal responsibility
Safeguarding work must follow applicable Indian child-protection law, including the POCSO Act, and use qualified statutory services where required.
Use a direct, private channel.
Do not post a child's identity or sensitive details publicly. Contact the organisation by phone or email for a responsible next step.
