The Ignite Philanthropy quarterly newsletter, Ignite Sparks, highlighted the Network of Organizations for Children of Serbia (MODS) in the section ‘Spotlight on Impact’.
MODS implemented the project “SAFE TRAVEL – Protection of children from sexual exploitation and abuse” in cooperation with the Protector of Citizens of the Republic of Serbia and the Chamber of Commerce of Serbia, which resulted in the signing of the Declaration on commitment to the prevention and protection of children from sexual abuse and exploitation in the context of tourism and travel.
The signing of this Declaration represents a significant step forward towards ensuring the safety and well-being of children in the tourism industry, and it was signed by the Chamber of Commerce of Serbia, YUTA (National Association of Travel Agencies), HORES (Business Association of the Hotel and Catering Industry of Serbia) and MODS. The signatories committed to implementing measures and regulations that will ensure zero tolerance towards sexual abuse and exploitation of children.
