Project Description:

The aim of the project is to support the mental health and well-being of children and adolescents in the proceedings of education and to provide prevention of mental illnesses and domestic violence. The project will be implemented through 3 activities with synergistic effects.

The first activity is the Resilience, Rights And Respectful Relationships Programme methodology and its transfer into the Czech educational system. A complex methodology, developed in Australia, includes 8 practical handbooks for teachers focused on social and emotional learning (SLE) and respectful relationships. The topics are adapted for different phases of schooling (for preschool children, primary and secondary schools).

The second activity is the implementation of the adapted RRRR methodology at 3 pilot schools in the school-year 2022-23, in cooperation with implementation teams at schools.

The third activity is the film Home, Sweet Home and its methodology focused on domestic violence and prevention of this phenomenon, and the transfer of the film and the methodology in the Czech Republic. The implementation will proceed in cooperation with the Norwegian partner.

The project partner is Alternative to Violence (Norway), a non-profit NGO that provides psychological treatment and professional expertise on domestic violence.
