The Protection and Social Rehabilitation Centre (Aman), one of the centres of the Qatar Foundation for Social Work, is participating in the sixth “Police Officers of Tomorrow” programme.
This year’s workshops are being held in co-operation with the Police Academy, represented by the Police College, with a series of awareness workshops for children participating in the programme.
The Aman workshops aim to raise community awareness of issues related to bullying and cyberbullying, and to educate children on social protection mechanisms and the prevention of these negative behaviours.
Aman Centre acting executive director Fadl bin Mohammed al-Kaabi emphasised the importance of this collaboration with the Police Academy, noting that the awareness workshops contribute to enhancing children’s awareness of methods to prevent cyberbullying and blackmail, as well as train them to deal with these situations in positive and effective ways.
He added that the centre is committed to instilling national identity and a sense of belonging among children, with interactive activities that contribute to developing leadership skills and enhancing self-confidence, reflecting the centre’s role in supporting community efforts to protect young people.
Head of Aman Centre’s Communication and Media Office, Hanan al-Ali, said that the centre places great importance on co-operating with security agencies to achieve its vision and strategic objectives of protecting children and victims of family disintegration from violence and working to reintegrate them into society.
