safe environment

hetpaleis aims to be a safe environment for all visitors, staff, volunteers and artists. We are committed to constant vigilance and to providing both the appropriate response to incidents and aftercare. We exercise discretion and handle confidential information with care.

hetpaleis respects the legal framework regarding discrimination, racism, sexism and other forms of exclusion. We always take action when these boundaries are crossed.

safe experimentation

hetpaleis makes space available for challenges, experimentation and growth. We invite boundaries to be explored, never to be crossed. Boundaries may be clearly stated and discomfort may exist, but unacceptable behaviour is not tolerated.  

Have you witnessed something? Or do you feel uncomfortable? Don’t hesitate to speak to one of our staff members. You can also contact us at any time via info@hetpaleis.be. Our well-being team (HR, integrity points of contact, confidential advisers, etc.) is here to support you.

a place of connection

hetpaleis is committed to a diversity of talents and expertise. Differences strengthen our collaboration. We continue to seek connection, even when there is friction. We care for one another because integrity is a shared responsibility. 

attention to human and children’s rights

hetpaleis expressly endorses all human and children’s rights. Both in our programme and during our activities, we pay particular attention to these rights.
