The Ministry of Justice, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Science, has launched a national-scale initiative to provide teachers and school personnel with the skills necessary to identify and respond to illegal or challenging behavior among minors promptly.

The primary goal of this crime prevention course is to prevent crimes by individuals under 18, thereby protecting teenagers from potential legal conflicts and ensuring the safety of society.

Through this training, teachers and relevant personnel from public and private schools will significantly enhance their role in early crime prevention and strengthen their response to incidents involving minors in coordination with the relevant agencies.

The course was officially presented today. Key speakers included the Minister of Justice, Rati Bregadze; the Minister of Education and Science, Giorgi Amilakhvari; the Adviser to the Prime Minister on human rights issues, Niko Tatulashvili; and the Head of the National Agency for Crime Prevention, Enforcement of Non-custodial Sentences, and Probation, Lado Kheladze.
