Safeguarding

The Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne is deeply committed to the care, safety and wellbeing of children and young people as a key responsibility of the Church. This commitment is founded in the teachings and mission of Jesus Christ and lived out with love and justice to ensure the dignity of each human person.

All aspects of Festival planning, place the safety of young people as the focus – from the creation of spaces that are welcoming and safe, the programming, selection of talent and workshop offerings, through to risk management in collaboration with our venue teams.
