We promote equality and respect, and ensure the correct use of resources.
WSM signed an Integrity Charter, as did all other NGOs in Belgium. It means that WSM is committed to taking the necessary measures to enable prevention, detection and response / sanction in case of violation of integrity in the context of our activities.
WSM staff signs an Ethical Code emphasizing values and norms.
You are a volunteer who is involved in WSM actions, you are an employee of one of our partners in Belgium or on the continents, or you are a person who participated in a WSM activity - and you are a witness or victim of an integrity violation by WSM employees, you can address your concerns, questions or complaint to the reporting points:
In general:
On the continents:
The reporting and handling of complaints is confidential, independent and takes the notifier into account. We can only properly handle a complaint if it is not anonymous.
Personal data is not shared with anyone unless with the consent of the notifier. Other people may be involved at a later stage, if the further handling of the complaint requires this.
After submitting your complaint, you will be kept informed of further treatment.
Integrity and respect are important core values for us. These values guide our actions and are endorsed by everyone who formally works for our organization (employees, volunteers and administrators). That is why WSM signed the Integrity Charter (pdf - in French/Dutch)
Gender equality within our organization is important and we take the necessary actions to reach our goals in this matter. That is why WSM signed the Gender charter (pdf - in French)
