      Primary prevention – investment for safety, health and well-being of children, adolescents, adolescents and adults The experience of violence and sexual abuse is also a reality in Slovenia for some children, adolescents and adolescents. The consequences of violence and abuse have a negative impact on children’s physical and psychological well-being, physical and mental health. These consequences can very roughly “interfere” with their personal development, interpersonal relationships, opportunities for schooling, creation, carefree play. Primary prevention is one of the key factors for protecting children, adolescents and adolescents from various forms of violence and abuse. Preventive activities strengthen the protective factors of children, adolescents and adolescents. It is important to start already in the preschool period and ensure repetitions, upgrading knowledge and skills.
