LWF child protection policy

The Lutheran World Federation and its World Service department are dedicated to promoting children’s rights and ensuring their welfare and physical security are recognized, safeguarded and protected in accordance with international standards. Child protection is a central and fundamental aspect of overall accountability towards affected populations and primary focus groups in World Service, where staff take responsibility for all actions undertaken, decisions made and policies complied with. World Service is therefore committed to implement its work in a manner consistent with this Child Protection Policy
