INSPIRATION CASE 25: YOUTH RESPONSIBILITY EDUCATION PROGRAMME

Š Clear Village 2011

General Information Often, youths that are brought up in difficult environments where they are exposed to things that perhaps no child should see, are as a result set on life paths that lead to social alienation stemming from aggressive behaviour and a higher likelihood of becoming engaged in criminal activities. In such cases, social help is much needed. Projects such as our inspiration example Crime2Climb attempt to get at risk young people off of the streets and teach them responsibility and social values.

Inspiration & Parametres for change a) individual development and growth Such a project provides an opportunity for personal achievement and leaves participants with more confidence, higher self-esteem and transferable life skills including those in communication, teamwork, trust, patience and respect. Furthermore, participants gain a professional qualification to enhance the opportunities in their futures. b) benefits for the public In diverting individuals away from criminal activity, a drop in crime should logically follow. A reduction in crime, especially anti-social behavior, in turn improves community life. Finally, this scheme costs less than a university course or what would be spent taking someone through the criminal justice system.
