🎉 Celebrating 2025: “ ” 🌍

Today, 5 December, the world is honouring the millions of volunteers whose dedication strengthens communities and drives meaningful change. 💪🤝

This day is also a reminder of the importance of ethical and child-safe volunteering. 🛡️👧👦

While professional volunteering can empower and uplift communities, unregulated voluntourism involving children can unintentionally cause harm and increase risks of child sexual exploitation.
All initiatives must be grounded in children’s rights and safety. ✨
