On Wednesday, April 17, 2024, the Ladies’ Union of Drama – H.O.H. within the framework of the “TIME TO TALK” program held an educational workshop for sixty children at the 4th secondary school of Xanthi.
Due to the great appeal and success of the educational workshops of the “TIME TO TALK” program in Drama, the Union accepted the invitation made by the school management. The Dean of the Democritus University of Thrace, Sevasti Chatzifotiou, spoke to the children about gender-based violence, its forms, online violence, how to recognize violence and about the useful information they can obtain from the website of the timetotalk.gr project. So far one thousand and fifty-five children (1055) of Secondary Education from all over the Prefecture have attended the educational seminars and have benefited in many ways.
The “TIME TO TALK” project started in December 2021 and its funding was completed in February 2023. From then until today, it continues voluntarily with the undivided support of the Democritus University of Thrace, and the scientific staff of the implementing organization. The aim is to approach even more children in order to prevent the phenomena of intra-school violence and juvenile delinquency.
