Three fronts. One institutional commitment.
Blue, lilac and orange are not a palette. They are how this Foundation names what it confronts.
01 / Blue
Human trafficking
01 · Blue
What we do
- Prevention education in schools, sport and workplaces
- Training for professionals who may be the first point of contact
- Institutional coordination with authorities and civil society
- Advocacy for coordinated, survivor-centred responses
- Research and evidence to inform policy
The recruitment, transport, harbouring or receipt of people through force, fraud or coercion for the purpose of exploitation. It happens in plain sight, in ordinary places, and it rarely looks like the films.
Warning signs
Recognising is not diagnosing. When in doubt, seek guidance. Never confront a possible abuser or recruiter on your own.
- Someone else controls the person's documents, money or movement
- Scripted, rehearsed answers, or a third party answering for them
- Debt that never decreases, however much the person works
- Sudden isolation from family, friends or previous routines
- Job offers abroad with vague employers and paid-for travel
02 / Lilac
Domestic violence
02 · Lilac
What we do
- Multidisciplinary support groups for women in situations of violence
- Safe orientation on rights, protective measures and reporting
- Referral to legal, psychosocial and health services
- Follow-up after the emergency phase, when risk often returns
- Community awareness that shifts blame away from the survivor
A pattern of coercive control (physical, psychological, sexual, patrimonial or moral) inside the home or an intimate relationship. Leaving is the most dangerous moment, which is why planning matters more than urgency.
Warning signs
Recognising is not diagnosing. When in doubt, seek guidance. Never confront a possible abuser or recruiter on your own.
- Control over money, phone, documents or who the person may see
- Constant belittling, threats, or blame for the abuser's own behaviour
- Escalating jealousy framed as care or protection
- Injuries explained away, or clothing that hides them
- Fear of the partner's reaction shaping everyday decisions
03 / Orange
Child sexual abuse & exploitation
03 · Orange
What we do
- Prevention education adapted by age group, in schools and sport
- Safeguarding protocols for coaches, teachers and institutions
- Training in how to receive a disclosure without causing further harm
- Support for families and protective adults
- Advocacy for accountability and for child-centred procedures
Most abuse is committed by someone the child already knows and trusts. Prevention therefore belongs to adults: to the systems, protocols and vigilance that surround a child, never to the caution of the child.
Warning signs
Recognising is not diagnosing. When in doubt, seek guidance. Never confront a possible abuser or recruiter on your own.
- An adult who insists on secrecy, gifts or time alone with the child
- Sudden behaviour, sleep, school or body-language changes
- Sexual knowledge or language beyond the child's age
- Fear or refusal to be with a specific person or in a specific place
- An adult who systematically ignores institutional protocols
Strengthen communities. Support survivors. Demand humane and effective responses.
