The International Safeguards for Children in Sport describe what organisations need to put in place if they are providing sports activities to children. The aim is to create a safe sporting environment for all children, in all parts of the world and at all levels of competition.  ChildFund is a pioneer organisation for the safeguards and has been implementing them across work in Asia and the Pacific.

Through our sport for development programs, including Pass It Back, we are committed to upholding the International Safeguards for Children in Sport, which requires us to:

• work towards the 8 International Safeguards for Children in Sport;
• complete an annual Safeguards self-audit and report on our progress;
• join and promote the annual safer sport campaign; and
• share all our relevant resources, learning, knowledge and research.
