They will be soon available on the website of the #PreventGBV project en los idiomas mencionados anteriormente. in the languages aforementioned.
The materials have been created by the partners based on a participatory methodology and in close collaboration with 5 national working groups. These working groups involve professionals linked with youth work, social work, juvenile justice, community involvement, and young people. They have been providing feedback to advance knowledge about the topic and the needs of the target group, in order to improve the quality and usability of the materials.
