Every child and young person visiting or engaging with Museum of Brisbane has the right to feel safe, respected, valued, and protected from harm through our exhibitions, programs and spaces. We have zero tolerance for child abuse and take concerns about the safety and wellbeing of children seriously.
By meeting the requirements of the Child Safe Organisations Act 2024 through the implementation of systems and practices across the organisation, the Museum is recognised as a Child Safe Organisation. We are committed to listening to children and young people, working with families, carers and specialist advisors, to achieve this.
We recognise that some children and young people may face greater risks of harm or exclusion, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people, children with disability, children from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, LGBTQIA+ children and young people, and children in out-of-home care or other arrangements. We have processes and programs in place to support the diversity and safety of our community.
