Safeguarding and protection is the right of every person and must be our collective responsibility.

ABOUT US

We, at Mudita, are a group of like-minded individuals who believe that every adult and child has a right to a life that is safe, free, and living with choice and dignity. We believe that there will come a day when every child is safe, happy, and living without fear.

We believe that this will be achieved only when each one of us makes a conscious decision to live not just for ourselves but for the less fortunate as well; when we collaboratively take responsibility for the well-being of others and feel joy in their dignity and freedom.

We at Mudita Foundation work towards tackling and preventing any form of abuse, violence and exploitation that impact children, young adults and women.
Vision
A world where each individual is living up to their full potential without the fear of abuse, violence and exploitation
Mission
Build and strengthen individuals, communities and systems to prevent, protect and support those who are at risk, vulnerable to risk or trapped in situations of abuse, violence and exploitation.
