Fictional illustrative scene
Choose the right route
A broken link here is an editorial correction. A problem with a distribution belongs to its provider. Allegations of abuse require the provider’s specialized protection channel. For immediate danger, use appropriate local emergency services.
Share only what is necessary
Describe the service, problem and a safe way to contact you. Do not publish victims’ identities, photos, identity documents or sensitive locations in public comments. Check the recipient and confidentiality arrangements before sending evidence.
Close the feedback loop
Ask for acknowledgement, the expected response time and a follow-up route. Lack of response supports a follow-up through official channels, but alone does not establish fraud. Donors can ask how feedback changed a programme.
