What is the SAFER Project?
Based on the training of life skills, teachers will transfer appropriate information, knowledge and skills to children to manage their behaviours, avoid and prevent violent behaviours.
Developing healthy relationships with others and maintain meaningful life skills are considered very crucial elements for the building trust and positive relations in order to identify maladaptive and abusive behaviours.
Moreover, trained teachers will be competent to identify, recognise, prevent and know how to respond to incidents of GBV, but also avoid stereotypes that contribute to GBV. The aim of the project is to provide the necessary resources to the teachers to implement activities in the classroom in the future to raise awareness about GBV.
