A training session was successfully held in Sarajevo from September 16 to 19, 2025, as part of the project Preventeen \u2013 Prevention of Addiction in the Leisure Time of Youth<\/em>. The training was attended by representatives of organizations and associations working with children and young people in their leisure time. <\/p>\n\n

All participants had the opportunity to deepen their knowledge of addiction prevention and health promotion in the context of youth work. Over four days of intensive workshops and lectures, various topics were addressed ranging from evidence-based prevention, international standards, and epidemiology to youth work and leadership. Participants gained practical guidelines to help improve the quality of their work and contribute to creating a healthier environment for children and young people. <\/p>\n\n

During the training, participants were introduced, through practical exercises, to methods and tools for addiction prevention, as well as ways to integrate these approaches into the daily work of their organizations.<\/p>\n\n

The project also enabled participants to network, exchange experiences, and establish lasting professional contacts \u2014 a key prerequisite for successfully applying newly acquired knowledge in the joint effort to combat addiction and create a safer and healthier environment for children and youth.<\/p>\n\n

Majda Divkovi\u0107<\/strong>, Coordinator at the Udru\u017eenje Zemlja djece u Bosni i Hercegovini from Tuzla, stated:<\/p>\n\n

I am glad that I attended all four days of the training. I would especially highlight the topics of advocacy, communication with young people, and prevention techniques \u2014 areas where I previously had less knowledge, but which will now significantly benefit my work with youth. I am pleased that I will incorporate this into my work with the youth club, through various workshops and possibly even collaboration on a public campaign. <\/em><\/p>\n\n

We would like to thank all participants for their engagement and contribution to the success of this training, as well as the organizations that supported their representatives\u2019 participation. We hope that the knowledge and skills gained will lead to long-term positive changes in work with children and young people. <\/p>\n\n
