Make the Right Choice: Anti-Trafficking Information Campaign for Youth in the Kaliningrad Oblast |
|
|
Summary
The aim of this project is to sensitize youth in the Kaliningrad Oblast, including both boys and girls, about risks related to trafficking in persons and to empower them to make informed and safe decisions in high trafficking risk situations. The project seeks not only to warn about trafficking dangers, but also to provide young people with more information about finding safer options to move away from home, including information about legal opportunities to study or work abroad or in other regions of Russia, and to distinguish between legitimate and fraudulent job offers. Youth will be encouraged to get involved in project activities in order to make sure that the project is relevant and effective. Additionally, their parents, teachers, and teacher trainees, NGOs, and central and local education authorities will be involved to ensure a comprehensive, sustainable approach.
This project is based on a Sida-funded program entitled “Prevention of Trafficking: Information for Youth in the Baltic States”, which was successfully completed in 2006.
