- Immediate Action: DISK will handle all reports promptly and discreetly, respecting the privacy of individuals involved. We cooperate with local child protection authorities to ensure compliance with host country legislation.
- Mandatory Reporting: All staff are mandated to report any suspicions of abuse and receive regular training in line with local legal requirements.
