Prevention and safe participation
Agape's approach requires defined roles, appropriate supervision and clear expectations for staff, volunteers and partners. Planned activities involving minors must be age-appropriate and supported by suitable consent arrangements and local safeguarding procedures.
No participant should be pressured to disclose a personal experience of abuse, exchange a favour for support, or agree to publicity to receive assistance. Partner readiness and referral pathways must be considered before implementation.
Raise a concern
To raise a concern about Agape's work, write to contact@agapeactionnorway.org with the subject Safeguarding concern. Share only the minimum information needed to arrange a private follow-up. Do not send photographs of abuse, identity documents, medical records or detailed survivor accounts in an initial email.
This mailbox is not an emergency response service and is not monitored continuously. If someone is in immediate danger, contact appropriate local emergency services or a qualified local protection provider. We cannot promise a particular response time or outcome.
Privacy and referrals
We aim to handle concerns with discretion and share information only as needed for appropriate follow-up, protection or legal obligations. Absolute confidentiality cannot be promised where disclosure is necessary to protect someone or comply with the law.
Agape is developing partnerships with qualified service providers. Medical treatment, psychosocial care and legal representation must be delivered by professionals with the relevant qualifications.
