Safeguarding Advocacy in Sport – Ensuring Best Outcomes

In this final episode of season 1, Jo Norman (Independent Safeguarding Consultant) talks with Willma King (National Safeguarding Learning and Development Manager) about the role of governance in the provision of Safeguarding Advocacy in Sport. Jo and Willma discuss how to 'govern' (establish safe practice and on-going monitoring) by providing the vulnerable with a representative – someone to be their voice, who will support and guide them through complex systems. Key learning from this episode: <ul><li>The need for a multi dimensional approach – "Advocacy is a team sport"</li><li>The need for transparency and awareness across all stakeholders, including rights, legal duties, and guidance to assist them in applying the service effectively</li><li>The need for clear publicity, ensuring all users are aware of what they should expect</li><li>Governance is an ongoing process, beginning with a clear set of expectations and applicable standards, through to the ongoing monitoring and measurement of effectiveness </li><li>SMART standards are to be set by the responsible board</li><li>All those working with children and adults at risk must be 'safer recruited' and checked against a register of 'safe people'</li><li>The need for annual audits, to ensure Advocacy services are compliant with the above</li></ul><hr> Hosted on Acast.

Safeguarding Advocacy in Sport – An International Perspective

In this episode, Jo Norman (Independent Safeguarding Consultant) talks with Mark Mungal (Sport and Development Consultant) about Safeguarding Advocacy in Sport from an international perspective. Mark shares his experience of Advocacy, including the challenges of ensuring an equal response internationally across the many different structures and legislative frameworks.  Mark highlights the importance of recognising different cultures, and that equality is not about having the same but ensuring we use the best from all cultures to avoid assuming one size fits all when applying The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).   Key learning from this episode:  <ul><li>The need to consider the complexities of the Advocacy offer across different jurisdictions and to use a country's cultural identity in the strategic development of service</li><li>The need for education of rights for providers, contractors, children, young people and adults at risk</li><li>The need to promote safe and protective cultural influences </li><li>The need to ensure identification of the right people to deliver the service – those who are independent and conscious of cultural bias, using a safer recruitment process</li></ul><hr> Hosted on Acast.
