Project background
The Brave Movement and Together for Girls are leading global advocacy and campaign efforts to elevate ending violence against children (EVAC) and digital safety for children on the agenda for the 2025 G20 Summit hosted in South Africa. Multiple in-person and virtual campaign activations will be held in the lead-up to the G20 Summit, including a ‘Safe Digital Futures’ roundtable, communications campaign, and an advocacy workshop in September involving survivor leaders of childhood sexual violence (CSV).
The Brave Movement will be supporting a delegation – publicly disclosed survivors of CSV who are members of the movement – to attend the G20 Summit. This includes the Social Good Summit from 18-20 November and the G20 Summit on 22-23 November. The sensitive nature of this work – particularly where survivor advocates are involved – requires dedicated safeguarding support and a framework to ensure participant well-being, mitigate risk, and uphold the movement’s commitment to trauma-informed practice.
Purpose of the role
This role will ensure safeguarding is integrated into all G20 campaign and advocacy activities, with a special focus on survivor involvement, safe storytelling, and consent management.
Deliverables
Written safeguarding risk assessments
Safeguarding briefing and debriefing sessions
Session plan and materials for the preparation sessions and delegation pack
Consent procedures and templates tailored for each activation
Post-event safeguarding reviews and insights
Participation in planning and coordination calls as needed
Contribution to campaign reports and donor deliverables
Qualifications
The Safeguarding Consultant should have:
Advanced degree or certification in psychology, counseling, social work, or a related mental health field.
Demonstrated expertise in safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, and de-escalation techniques, especially with survivor communities.
Expertise in online safety and security.
Experience managing safeguarding in high-profile or multi-stakeholder events.
Experience in supporting vulnerable groups to participate in global conferences and events.
Strong understanding of ethical storytelling and consent, including digital and media risks.
Expertise in child sexual violence, online harms, and global advocacy campaigns.
Proven ability to handle confidential information with discretion and professionalism.
Experience working across diverse cultural contexts and global teams.
Availability to travel to South Africa for key events (costs covered by Brave Movement / Together for Girls)
Knowledge and skills of a major South African language are desirable.
