Our commitment to children’s rights and child protection

As a foundation against racism, we strive to raise awareness of children’s rights and child protection. We work with various actors from all over Germany who design a variety of projects for children and young people as part of their activities against racism, anti-Semitism and anti-Muslim racism.

Our commitment to a safe environment for children

We call on our cooperation partners, supporters and sponsors to ensure the protection of this particularly vulnerable group at their events with children and young people. This can be achieved by implementing a child and youth protection concept that is aligned with the principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and defines clear responsibilities. The measures to protect children and young people include, for example, training for employees, the appointment of a contact person for child and youth protection, checking certificates of good conduct for freelance workers and volunteers and a standardized procedure for reporting suspected cases.
