FHI 360’s framework for safeguarding program participants includes a set of minimum standards (required actions) that are organized under eight domains. The minimum standards apply to all FHI 360 projects that involve interaction with program participants, regardless of whether FHI 360 is the prime or a sub to another organization. The standards are designed to help country offices and FHI 360 project teams ensure uniform application of FHI 360’s Safeguarding Policies. When effectively and fully implemented, the minimum standards mitigate safeguarding-related risks and help us respond effectively if harm does occur.
