Objectives
The aim of this project, realised by verein freiraum in cooperation with INPUT Integratives Netzwerk für Pädagogik und Tanz, is to support girls from a migrant background or from socially disadvantaged families in
- recognising and expressing their individual health needs and
- actively and self-confidently changing their health behaviour.
In addition to girls-specific offers (e.g. girls club, open learning group) the project provides training and accompanying support of peer-helpers. The training's aim is to empower girls in passing on information on selected health topics (e.g. domestic violence, self-assertion, self-confidence) to their peers.
In the course of the project, parental education as well as activities for promoting the intercultural dialogue and the exchange with the media will be realised.
