Your Safety Matters. Your Voice Matters.

You deserve respectful treatment

You have the right to ask questions, express concerns, decline inappropriate contact and seek help. An opportunity must never depend on personal favours, gifts or tolerating mistreatment.

Behaviour that is not acceptable

• Physical abuse or threats.
• Sexual harassment, exploitation or unwanted contact.
• Bullying, intimidation or discrimination.
• Inappropriate online communication.
• Requests for money, gifts or favours in exchange for opportunities.
• Abuse of authority or retaliation for a good-faith report.

How to raise a concern

If safe, move away from immediate harm and reach a trusted adult or support person. Use the Report a Concern page or contact RIF. You may omit your name and contact details; without contact information RIF cannot follow up with you directly. Record only information you can share safely. Do not investigate or confront an alleged perpetrator yourself.

What happens next

The website securely records a concern; it does not guarantee an immediate response or a particular outcome. Designated personnel should assess safety needs, listen respectfully and decide necessary protective steps. Formal handling procedures and personnel designation require RIF approval. In immediate danger in Ghana, call 112 rather than waiting for a website response.
