GummiLove is launching the "Safety First" project - the youth protection kit. The ambitious goal: to distribute around one million #SafetyFirstSets to one million young people aged 13+ - free of charge! But why? Let's start from the beginning.
Young people who know their rights are better protected!
- Young people who are victims of sexualized violence online are often full of shame and fear and do not dare to get help. Bans or consequences further intensify these fears.
- Prevention and education is the most effective strategy for helping young people to protect themselves from sexualized violence, discriminationDiscrimination refers to the disadvantaging or exclusion of people based on certain characteristics, such as age, gender, skin color, sexual orientation, religion or disability.

- Therefore, it is all the more important that young people are properly educated and know their rights, so that they can confidently understand and exercise them.
- In addition, they will become more aware of their personal responsibility and be better able to assess where and how they have to take responsibility for their actions in social media and on the internet.

Safety First Set for the Swiss youth!
It is the responsibility of us adults to protect our young people! That's why the GummiLove association has been committed to prevention and sexual health education for young people aged 13 and over since 2009.
Now we need your help: to raise awareness and personal responsibility among young people and to inform them about their rights, we have launched the "Safety First" - The Youth Protection Set project.
Our ambitious goal: to distribute around one million #SaftyFirstSets to around one million Swiss young people aged 13+ - free of charge!
What do the Safety First kits contain and how are you helping to distribute them free of charge throughout Switzerland?
A central component of our Safety First Set is our cross-media GummiLove Sexpert magazine (print supplemented by our website gummilove.ch), which informs young people about their rights and provides them with valuable and age-appropriate information on all aspects of sexuality. Sexual self-determination, protection against sexually transmitted diseases or the responsible use of social media - all this and more is addressed and edited in such a way that we can reach young people in their own language. GummiLove does not want to moralize, but rather to raise awareness among young people and strengthen their skills!
