When young people have access to information and adults are able to have meaningful conversations with them, then a strong basis is in place for young people to participate actively. Many professionals are hesitant however to discuss healthy sexual development, risky sexual behaviour and sexual violence with young people. Professionals know it’s important, but don’t feel competent to do so.
This is one of the outcomes of the LEAP Community of Practice on participation, youth and sexual violence. It is for this reason that we are hosting a webinar on ‘discussing sexuality with young people’.
We’ll present practical methods, do’s and don’t from the perspective of experienced experts and invite participants to share good practices.
Facilitators:
Ms. Szilvia Gyurko: Tdh's regional juvenile justice advisor is a freelance child rights adviser and researcher. Currently she is the Head of the Board of ESZTER Foundation (which provides psychological and legal help for the victims of sexual violence) and she runs Hintalovon Foundation that develops child rights and educational projects.
