4.1 Risk Assessments
Risk Assessments are completed, reviewed by a SFP, and approved by SMT member or DSL prior to any activity where the WAGGGS Global Team are in direct physical or digital contact with children and young people participating in WAGGGS activities. Specific risks regarding welfare, travel, digital safety, data protection are identified and managed and high-risk activities, such as large-scale events or face to face
activities with children or young people, are reviewed by a SMT member and approved by a DSL. Contact with WAGGGS youth volunteers aged 30 and under is managed in Standard 8 (section 5.2) and interaction with this group does not need additional risk assessment.
