Safeguarding

At Burkina Institute of Technology (BIT), the safety, protection, and well-being of every member of our community – especially the children and young people we engage with – are at the heart of everything we do.

In October 2026, BIT proudly achieved Level 1 Certification from Keeping Children Safe (KCS), marking an important milestone in our commitment to creating a safe, inclusive, and protective environment for all.

This certification recognizes BIT's implementation of a comprehensive child safeguarding framework aligned with international Keeping Children Safe standards. It reflects our commitment to preventing harm, promoting a culture of safeguarding, and ensuring that any concerns are taken seriously and addressed promptly and appropriately.

All BIT staff, students, volunteers, and partners are expected to uphold these principles and adhere to our Code of Conduct, contributing to a culture of respect, accountability, and shared responsibility.
