The project aims to empower young people to become advocates for crime prevention in their communities through the creation of engaging and informative online content. The content will cover a range of topics related to crime prevention, such as personal safety, cybersecurity, and community engagement. The project will provide resources and training to help young people develop their skills in content creation, including video production, blogging, and social media management. The ultimate goal is to promote a culture of crime prevention among young people and inspire them to take action in their communities.
