Urgent concerns — act immediately
If a child is in immediate danger or you believe a child is being harmed, contact your local emergency services or official child protection authorities right away. In Fiji, call the national emergency number 911.
This website and its contact form are not monitored for emergencies and must not be used to report urgent child protection concerns. A message here may not be seen quickly.
Our safeguarding commitments
We are committed to the safety, dignity, and wellbeing of every child and adult we work with. As we establish our programs, we are building our practice around the following commitments:
- Do no harm. The safety and best interests of children guide every decision.
- Clear expectations. Everyone acting on our behalf is expected to behave respectfully and appropriately toward children and communities.
- Refer to the experts. We support and direct concerns to official child protection services and authorities — we do not replace them.
- Respect and consent. We seek consent for participation and are careful with images, stories, and personal information, especially those of children.
- Local coordination. We work with established local services and follow local laws and protocols.
- Continuous improvement. We review our safeguarding practices as we grow and welcome feedback.
Imagery and stories
We avoid publishing images or stories that could identify vulnerable children or compromise anyone's dignity or safety. Where we use imagery, we favour landscapes, community materials, hands, and abstract artwork, and we only use identifiable images of people with appropriate, informed consent.
Raising a non-urgent concern
For non-urgent questions about our conduct or safeguarding approach, you can email us at info@invektion.com.au. Again, please do not use email for urgent situations where a child may be at risk — contact emergency or child protection services directly.
Grounded in regional priorities
Our approach reflects priorities identified in the region. An independent review of the UNICEF Pacific child protection programme highlights the importance of contextualising child protection locally, coordinating across agencies, and connecting child protection with efforts to end violence against women and girls (UNICEF/DFAT independent review). Fiji's government has similarly emphasised stronger collaboration between government agencies and partners to achieve child protection goals (Fijian Government).
A living commitment
This is a working statement that we will strengthen with formal policies as our organisation develops.
