COMHLÁMH CODE OF GOOD PRACTICE
Respect is about openness and flexibility in the way we think and act. It involves empathy, humility, having a reflective and critical awareness of ourselves and others and of structures and systems. Volunteer Sending Agencies work to create contexts where people of different identities, beliefs, understandings and situations live in harmony. Volunteer Sending Agencies operate in a manner that is critically reflective in ensuring respect between colleagues; between the agency and its staff and volunteers; between the agency and the partner organisations and local communities with whom it works; between volunteers and partner organisations; and between the agency and the public.
The programmes, projects and volunteer roles of our organisation are based on sustainable, mutual, and equal partnerships which recognise and address power differentials between our organisation and those we work with.
Our organisation ensures respect between the people in our organisation and between the organisation (staff, volunteers, contracted or other personnel) and the local community and partners involved in its work.
The programmes, projects and volunteer roles of our organisation are based on sustainable, mutual, and equal partnerships which recognise and address power differentials between our organisation and those we work with.
