Real prevention!
What is preventive work?
Preventive work aims to prevent or reduce the risk of future problems, injuries, or negative events by taking action in advance. It means actively taking initiatives and measures to prevent or reduce the occurrence of problems or risks before they occur. Preventive work can be applied in various fields, including health, safety, crime prevention, environmental protection, and many other areas. Early interventions focus on supporting and strengthening individuals and communities to prevent problems. This may involve early interventions in schools, in democracy, in leisure, and support for our most vulnerable – children and young people.
Meaningful leisure time
Meaningful, safe, and fun leisure time is crucial for preventing negative development. This includes activities and workshops such as sports, democracy, art, culture, and other interests that provide children with a safe place but also tools to grow up into democratic citizens. Through more activities, workshops and training, we not only increase knowledge but also give children and young people a place to build relationships and find a sense of belonging. It is real preventive work, where ill-health, crime and negative behavior are prevented by offering alternatives to destructive activities. We offer thousands of children and young people activities from local to international. An active leisure time is one of the most effective means to prevent exclusion and promote community. Unga Örnar offers a place where young people can meet friends, have fun and develop as democratic citizens.
No children in prison!
Children should not become symbols in politics. Locking up children does not solve any problems, it is symbolic politics that does not work. What is needed is preventive measures, support and safe contexts. Stand up for children’s rights.
