Swiss-Belhotel, a leading international hotel chain, has recently partnered with ECPAT Indonesia to protect children in the country from exploitation and abuse. This collaboration is part of Swiss-Belhotel’s ongoing commitment to corporate social responsibility and ensuring the safety and well-being of all individuals, especially children.
ECPAT Indonesia is a non-profit organization that works to end the sexual exploitation of children in the country. Through their various programs and initiatives, they aim to raise awareness, advocate for policy changes, and provide support to victims of exploitation.
The partnership between Swiss-Belhotel and ECPAT Indonesia will focus on implementing child protection policies and training within the hotel chain’s properties in Indonesia. This includes training staff on how to identify and respond to signs of child exploitation, as well as establishing reporting mechanisms to ensure any incidents are properly addressed.
By working together, Swiss-Belhotel and ECPAT Indonesia are taking a proactive approach to preventing child exploitation within the hospitality industry. Hotels can often be a target for perpetrators, making it crucial for businesses to have robust policies and procedures in place to safeguard children.
In a statement, Emmanuel Guillard, Senior Vice President of Operations and Development for Swiss-Belhotel International, expressed the company’s commitment to protecting children and upholding their rights. He emphasized the importance of collaborating with organizations like ECPAT Indonesia to ensure a safe environment for all guests, including the most vulnerable members of society.
This partnership is a step in the right direction towards creating a safer and more secure environment for children in Indonesia. It sends a strong message that businesses have a responsibility to protect the well-being of their guests and to actively work towards preventing child exploitation.
Through initiatives like this, Swiss-Belhotel is setting a positive example for other companies in the hospitality industry to follow. By prioritizing child protection and actively supporting organizations like ECPAT Indonesia, Swiss-Belhotel is demonstrating its commitment to making a positive impact on society and contributing to the well-being of future generations.
