We wish for young people to be protected from human trafficking and to be able to shape their future freely – without coercion and in freedom. That’s why we have developed a prevention program with modules that are related to human trafficking.
We also offer personal training for people who want to engage in the fight against human trafficking in their city or in the red-light district. Contact us for this.
This prevention material is suitable for young people aged 15-25 years. It informs participants about the topics of human trafficking and prostitution and helps young people to talk about it without shame. The prevention program is currently available in German, English, and other languages.
The prevention material consists of several modules. We recommend that you go through the modules in order. However, you can also work through or repeat modules individually with the young people. A module lasts 1 to 1.5 hours and is self-contained.
A PowerPoint presentation is available for each module. Additionally, you will have access to a list of links to thematically appropriate video clips.
For the participants, there is a notebook in which they can record personal thoughts.
Each module includes a guide with background information, suggestions for interaction, action steps, and reflection times.
The module covers everything related to human trafficking: its definition, the various forms, recruitment methods, and reasons why someone becomes a victim of human trafficking. Young people should be informed about how and where to get help and what to do in an emergency.
Prostitution is hardly talked about. People have certain ideas or notions. In this module, we address the taboo. Together with the young people, we examine everyday life in the red-light district, discuss the physical and psychological aspects of prostitution, and look at exit options.
Abuse is a reality for many young people. Abuse is one of the reasons for entering prostitution. This module discusses personal boundaries and the boundaries of others. How can I say no and how can I protect myself? Young people should know where to get help and who to turn to.
We all long for people who accept and love us. But how can I build good and healthy relationships? This module addresses areas such as positive or negative characteristics of a relationship, sex vs. love relationship, and everything about online acquaintances.
