Welcome to Peace by Youth’s (PY) commitment to creating a safe and respectful environment for everyone involved in our work. This webpage provides access to both our Code of Conduct and our Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) Policy, outlining our shared expectations for behavior and clear procedures for reporting and responding to harmful conduct.

Transparency and accountability are core values at PY. We believe that everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and empowered to speak up if they experience or witness inappropriate behavior. By making these policies readily available and fostering open communication, we aim to:

• Prevent harmful behavior by establishing clear expectations for ethical and respectful conduct.
• Empower everyone to report incidents through accessible and confidential reporting channels.
• Ensure fair and prompt investigations based on established procedures.
• Hold individuals accountable for violating our policies, upholding a culture of integrity.
• Continuously improve our policies and practices through ongoing learning and feedback.

We encourage you to carefully review both the Code of Conduct and the PSEA Policy to understand your rights, responsibilities, and reporting options. We are committed to providing support and resources to ensure everyone feels safe and heard within PY.

Together, we can create a safer, more respectful, and accountable environment for all individuals involved in PY’s work.
