Image Policy

Save the Children recognizes the importance of visual storytelling in communication. When using pictures of children in media, our priority is always the child’s safety and well-being. Consequently, a meticulous process is employed to ensure child safeguarding throughout our digital communications. 

Every picture of a child is captured with the consent of the child’s caretaker. Save the Children ensures that the child’s identity cannot be triangulated by correlating their image with other personal information. As a result, the organization may alter the names and locations in their materials to safeguard the child’s identity. In exceptional cases, the organization may anonymize a child’s face if it is deemed necessary for their protection. 

Additionally, Save the Children’s Resource Centre can use AI-generated illustrations on the platform as an additional measure to protect the privacy of and to ensure the safety of children. This approach eliminates the need for actual images of children on the platform, thereby mitigating any current or future risk to children who are featured in our communications. 

While the Resource Centre strives for these AI-generated images to be as accurate as possible, they may not perfectly represent the intended subject. While this limitation is inherent to the technology, we believe that it is a worthwhile compromise to ensure the safety and privacy of children. Save the Children remains steadfast in its commitment to ensure the safety and well-being of children throughout its digital communications. 

Please note that all images on the platform belong to Save the Children, unless otherwise specified. They may not be copied, reproduced, or reused unless explicit permission is granted. 

Have you come across an image on Save the Children’s Resource Centre that violates this policy? Please share you observation and concern with us via email: resourcecentre@savethechildren.org. We will respond to you at our earliest convenience.
