In Shkodra, the Youth Initiative Addressed Concerns About Dangerous Addiction Among Young People.

The youth group has recently launched an initiative called the "You Create" journey to raise awareness about one of the primary challenges facing their community. They discussed the issue of young people engaging in risky behavior and developing different addictions, which can put them at risk of encountering or conflicting with the law. Instead of just discussing the problem, they took concrete actions!

Their initiative is related to using art as a catalyst for change. After organizing a series of advocacy activities to promote a healthy lifestyle in the community, family, school, and neighborhood, the Terre des hommes youth group expressed their creativity through painting. This demonstrated that the true power of change lies in prevention.

In this competition, young people from various classes, organized by our youth, were assessed by a panel comprising representatives from psychosocial services, the security officer, and the staff of Community Center No. 5 "For the Family," who chose the winning entry. Let's support the efforts of these young leaders for a healthier future for all of us, together! This activity was organized by Terre des hommes as one of the partners implementing the program "𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑠𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑁𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝐻𝑢𝑚𝑎𝑛 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑓𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝐴𝑙𝑏𝑎𝑛𝑖𝑎", led by UNICEF Albania and supported by the British Embassy Tirana.
