The Learning action partnership was introduced to Safenet’s Cyber Scout Programme

The partnership with a mission “Zero tolerance towards sexual exploitation of children and adolescents” is within BFPA’s project “The ability to change”. The project is supported by the OAK foundation and our training was implemented by the colleagues Georgi Apostolov and Emanuil Georgiev from Safenet Centre, also members of the LAP.
The main accent of the training is the necessity of developing critical thinking in children from the earliest age. Because today’s digital kids develop their emotional intelligence later but they grow in a “sexually poisoned” environment. It’s good to know that if a child has a problem, its parents most often are not aware but its friends almost definitely are. That is why we try to initiate a proactive attitude on behalf of parents. The age of the first unsupervised online search is constantly dropping – from 9 years of age in 2012 to 7 years old in 2016. Where are we in 2020?
124123 is a phone number for advice in cases of online harassment of children. On the other side of the line are specially prepared psychologists.
The training is part of the initiative ‘The Ability to Change’ – a project of the Bulgarian Family Planning and Sexual Health Association, supported by OAK Foundation.
