At the press conference, Marta Stanojević and Tatjana Nikolić spoke about the activities and results of the project “Carefree and Safe – Preventing Violence Against Children Living and Working/Begging on the Streets and/or Living in Poverty in Niš”, supported by the European Commission through the DAPHNE programme (EuroChild).

• 42 children participated in workshops.

• 12 mothers received various forms of support.

• 20 representatives of institutions and civil society organizations (CSOs) took part in training on preventing and combating violence against children, exchanging views and experiences and working to challenge prejudices.

• 11 women and girls completed training to become community mediators.

• Through a performance and a social media campaign, the wider public was able to see the messages shared by the children.

Through the Carefree & Safe project, the Centre for Girls from Niš worked with children and their families on a daily basis over 18 months. Through outreach work, education and support, the project aimed to contribute to creating a safer environment for every child.

A brochure developed as part of the project was distributed to those attending the event.
