Restoring hope, promoting peace, and empowering vulnerable communities across Rwanda through faith, compassion, and sustainable development.
Good News for Peace and Development – Rwanda (GNPDR) is committed to protecting the dignity, safety, and wellbeing of all individuals who participate in our programs, particularly children, survivors of trauma, incarcerated individuals, and other vulnerable populations.
GNPDR recognizes that many of the individuals we serve have experienced trauma, abuse, neglect, or social exclusion. For this reason, safeguarding and protection are central to our organizational values and program design.
We strive to create safe and respectful environments in all program activities. Staff members, volunteers, and partners are expected to treat beneficiaries with dignity and respect while ensuring that no individual is exposed to harm, exploitation, or discrimination.
GNPDR is committed to developing and implementing safeguarding policies that include:
✔ Clear standards of conduct for staff and volunteers
✔ Procedures for reporting and responding to safeguarding concerns
✔ Measures to prevent abuse, exploitation, and harassment
✔ Protection mechanisms for children and vulnerable adults
Staff members and volunteers are encouraged to maintain awareness of safeguarding principles and to ensure that program activities prioritize the safety and wellbeing of all participants.
GNPDR believes that safeguarding is a shared responsibility. We encourage beneficiaries, community members, and partners to report any concerns related to safety, abuse, or misconduct so that appropriate action can be taken promptly and responsibly.
Through strong governance, ethical leadership, and a firm commitment to safeguarding, GNPDR strives to operate with integrity, transparency, and accountability while serving the most vulnerable members of society.
These principles guide our work as we continue building peaceful, resilient communities across Rwanda.
