The Bicester Collection: Protecting Children Survey

35 Questions That Could Change the Lives of One Billion Children

 

Unlock Futures is a global movement led by The Bicester Collection’s DO GOOD philanthropic programme, in partnership with the United Nations Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Violence Against Children, ECPAT International, the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) and other industry leaders. Together, we’re mobilising the private sector to make child protection non-negotiable across travel, leisure, and entertainment. 

This anonymous 35-question survey gathers insights to shape the 2026 Unlock Futures Action Paper — a practical roadmap every company can adopt to protect children.

Thank you for taking part. Together, we can unlock futures for one billion children experiencing violence every year.
