Safeguarding Policy<\/h1>\n

Habitat Japan established a new Child and Adult Safeguarding Policy (referred to hereafter as \"Safeguarding Policy\"<\/a> in July 2025, serving as a guideline for action to prevent and respond to physical or sexual abuse, exploitation, harassment, bullying, and other potential harm to communities we work with, especially in regard to vulnerable adults and children. This Safeguarding Policy clarifies the responsibilities and obligations of all Habitat Japan stakeholders, including staff, interns, volunteers, and third parties such as visitors, contractors, partners, and their affiliates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
