As part of the initiative "Together We Can Do More!", implemented under the project "Rights and Values" with the support of the European Union and the "Workshop for Civic Initiatives" foundation, our team held inspiring meetings and discussions with students and parents. Our main goal was to encourage them to recognize and prevent violence, oppose discrimination, and build healthier social connections.

Within the framework of the initiative, the organization team, with the active participation of volunteers from the youth club "То Be Friends", conducted 12 lectures with students in the Pernik region. Over 160 students participated in the training sessions, which took place between September and October 2024. The format of the training was interactive, tailored to the participants' needs, and included discussions, practical exercises, and role-playing games. Topics covered included types of violence, protection mechanisms, and the importance of positive relationships within the community.

The lectures conducted sparked significant interest among students. They actively participated in discussions, shared personal experiences, and expressed a desire for more meetings. In some cases, the topics have triggered strong emotional reactions, which indicate the importance of the issue and the need for continued support and awareness.

Based on the feedback received and observations, the team continues to conduct training and works to strengthen communication between students, teachers, and parents. Establishing trustful relationships and creating a safe environment remain key to successfully building a more informed and resilient society.

The "Together We Can Do More!" project continues to expand its activities, providing new opportunities for training, support, and the development of young people.
