The program is aimed at educational professionals who work in schools, youth facilities, advice centres or other social institutions. The aim is to provide participants with in-depth knowledge and practice-oriented methods. In the three-and-a-half-hour training course, participants are trained as multipliers for the green suitcase so that they can carry out the methods independently with school classes or youth groups.
The kit contains a varied collection of materials and methods that explain the psychological and physical effects of cannabis use and legal aspects and encourage active discussion and reflection on one's own attitude towards cannabis. The aim is to prevent adolescents and young adults from starting to use cannabis and to motivate those already using cannabis to reduce or give up their use.
The Green Kit contains nine interactive methods and materials for talking to young people about cannabis in an open, humorous and creative way.
The handbook contains practical instructions for all methods and materials as well as an overview of how professionals in the school sector can optimally embed the contents of the Green Kit, for example in an overall or school addiction prevention concept. Because: Sustainable addiction prevention promotes psychological and social resources, strengthens the personality and shows alternatives to substance use.
