Awareness meetings continue in schools to enhance the safety of children and youth.

Within the framework of the cooperation agreement between the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Education and Sports for implementing the national program “Youth Safety,” the Korçë Police services are continuing a series of informative and educational meetings with students in the district’s nine-year schools.

The latest meetings were conducted by the assistant specialists of the Korçë Police Directorate for school education, in collaboration with teaching staff and safety officers, at nine-year schools in Devoll Municipality and nine-year schools in Pogradec Municipality, with participation from 6th-grade students.

During discussions with the students, important topics relevant to their age were addressed, such as:

* Stopping violence and its forms;

The phenomenon of bullying, its causes and consequences;

Risks and safety in internet use;

The importance of respect and non-violent communication.

To make the meetings more engaging and understandable, police officers presented visual materials, videos, and illustrative photos, while informational leaflets on safety and protection from bullying were distributed to the students.

These meetings aim to educate the younger generation on civic values, raise awareness about potential risks, and strengthen cooperation between the State Police, schools, and families for a safer community.
