The programme aims to promote a security culture among students.

Investing in new generations’ awareness

The programme includes a series of lectures and interactive workshops that address key topics in the areas of traffic safety, preventing negative behaviours, combating psychotropic substances, and strengthening family relationships.

Supporting community stability and prosperity

He added that the Community Protection and Prevention Department is committed to intensifying field and awareness programmes in partnership with educational institutions and families, with the goal of building a generation that thrives on responsibility and belonging, capable of facing challenges with a solid security culture and positive behaviours that support community stability and prosperity.
