SAY NO TO PORN. Protecting Young People from Harmful Content in Coslada
This campaign is a community program designed to help young individuals avoid the negative impacts of consuming pornography. Our goal is to prevent impulsive behaviour related to pornography among adolescents, promoting both personal and community well-being.
Various areas contribute to this program, including Childhood, Gender Equality, Health, Education, and Youth, with the involvement of Personal Development Advisors, the CIDAJ team, and the FAMPA of Coslada.
We launched this intervention during the 2021/2022 academic year, and due to its positive reception, we kept it in 2022/2023, and we will resume it again in 2023/2024.
The project's main components include three information sessions per classroom in educational centres across the municipality. These sessions are conducted within the framework of affective-sexual education. Additionally, we conduct awareness-raising activities such as "And you, how do you make out?" with youngsters from the youth centre "El Rompeolas."
During the 2021/2022 academic year, we organised a Conference on Minors and Pornography and a webinar for families titled "Minors and pornography: an explosive mixture." More information about these events can be found at https://redjovencoslada.es/menores-y-pornografia/.
Collaborations during the 2021/2022 academic year included Anar, Colegio Oficial de Psicología, Save the Children, FERSE, Grupo de Investigación de la URJC, and Dale una Vuelta.
In the 2022/2023 academic year, we continued our intervention in educational centres and with groups at El Rompeolas. A session for families titled "What if my child, what can I do to face it?" was also held. Details can be found at https://redjovencoslada.es/stop-porn/.
For the recently started academic year 2023/2024, we aim to maintain interventions in educational centres and with El Rompeolas groups. Additionally, we plan to organise an activity involving families and invite the film-maker Mabel Lozano to present one of her films.
