The Media Zone Authority - Abu Dhabi (“the MZA”) Child Safeguarding Guidelines (“the Guidelines”) set out the standards and procedures which must be observed by anyone working in the Media Free Zone - Abu Dhabi when dealing with under-eighteens.

From the outset, the MZA is clear in acknowledging the role of the media and the part it plays in reflecting society. With this in mind, the Guidelines have been created to encourage and support the safe participation of children in content creation.
