Hivos believes that human life in its many forms is valuable, and people in all their diversity have potential and talent. Living a life with freedom and dignity, with respect for each other and the planet leads to greater individual and collective well-being and fair and vibrant societies.
We cooperate with various partners across four continents on a variety of projects that can be large scale and long term, but also small and experimental: our strength lies in diversity, and with a diverse team and stakeholders also comes the great responsibility of ensuring everyone feels safe and included.
Hivos’ Safeguarding Policy provides clear definitions, sets standards across the organization, and gives clear guidance on its implementation for Hivos and its partners.
