How to guide: Safe from Harm Self-Assessment digital tool

Published:

To make sure Scouting worldwide supports the highest safeguarding standards, all National Scout Organizations (NSOs) are requested to submit their Safe from Harm Self-Assessment through a digital tool. This will allow an easier process and management of data collection.

Use the Safe from Harm Self-Assessment Guidelines for further guidance on preparing for and conducting a self-assessment.

Access to the new Safe from Harm Assessment platform

Each NSO/As accounts are created using the contact information maintained in the NSO Directory Portal. Once an account has been created, the designated contacts will receive an email notification with instructions on accessing and activating their account.

The National Safe from Harm Coordinator appointed in the NSO Directory Portal (or the NSO Official Contacts, where no Safe from Harm Coordinator has been appointed) is responsible for managing the assessment process on behalf of the NSO. Once logged in, authorized users can navigate the platform, access their assessment, and manage submissions directly.

To ensure uninterrupted access, NSOs should keep their contact information in the NSO Directory Portal up to date. If you experience any difficulties accessing your account or the platform, please contact your Regional Safe from Harm focal point for support.

If your NSO has not yet completed its first Safe from Harm Self-Assessment and you are experiencing difficulties accessing the platform, please inform or contact the regional Safe from Harm focal point so they can assist you in gaining access. Likewise, if your NSO has not received the platform access email, the self-assessment notification or if you are experiencing any issues accessing the platform, please contact the Safe from Harm staff member supporting your region or email safefromharm@scout.org for further support.
