Preventing emotional and sexual abuse among students through a comprehensive information and training platform
The access of youngsters to emotional and sexual education has been a long-time concern for governments, NGOs, and local institutions across Europe. Comprehensive sexual education allows young people to develop their social and sexual relations based on respect. This perspective enables them to think about how their choices affect their well-being and others.
Hence, the PREVEX project aims at updating knowledge in the university context on the violent, criminal, and social dimensions of sexual deviance. The initiative will implement a platform containing information, training resources, and specific paths adapted to initial and continuous education needs.
These materials aimed at university professors will also be available to judges, special educators, psychologists, and security that work with youth.
