The project "Youth Support for a stronger Europe, joining together against gender violence" is a multilateral strategic partnership between 5 European countries (Spain, Italy, Malta, Romania and Portugal) which goal, in addition to the specific objectives of the project, is to allow the development of networks, the increase of the capacity to work at a transnational level and the sharing and confrontation of ideas, practices and methods.

​

Following the EU 2020 Strategy, which has among its main objectives the fight against violence, we want to take an important step to prevent youth violence by involving schools, institutes and educational centers to inform, teach and above all, educate on this issue.

​

​

OBJECTIVES:

​

• Raise awareness of the problem in young people, teachers, youth organizations and public institutions

• The improvement of young people's relationship skills and personal sense of security

• The improvement of the formal, non-formal and informal education system on the subject

​

Thanks to class work, meetings with interested partners and educators, and the large group of participants and centers that will work for the project, great results will be achieved: getting young people to change their vision and become aware of dangerous situations, improvement in the awareness of educators, parents and society in general on the need to combat youth violence and all its physical and psychological consequences; the development of greater security, tolerance, values, civic sense and new relational skills in young people, thanks to the work in the classroom, and finally ensure that schools integrate this topic within their subjects.

​

​

Our project will involve 500 young people between 15 and 18 years old and more than 100 professionals and experts on the subject (teachers, educators, psychologists and youth workers).
