BMBF joint and transfer project of the University of Kassel, Kiel University of Applied Sciences, the University of Hildesheim and the Landshut University of Applied Sciences in the funding line "Research on sexualized violence against children and adolescents in educational contexts".

The collaborative and transfer project "SchutzJu - Protection Concepts in Child and Youth Work & Youth Social Work" is implemented within the framework of the third BMBF funding line phase "Research and Development Projects for the Transfer of Research Results from the Field of Protection of Children and Adolescents from Sexualized Violence in Pedagogical Contexts" (duration 2021 - 2024). The project explores in a cooperative and participatory way the enablers and barriers of the implementation of protection concepts in child and youth work & youth social work. The transfer project ties in with the results from the previous joint project "SchutzNorm - Protection concepts in child and youth work. Normality constructions on sexuality and violence among young people" (2018 - 2021) and the collaborative research "Safer Places - We pay attention (to) each other!" (2013 - 2016). This contributes to the implementation of participatory protection concepts in child and youth work & youth social work. We understand protection concepts as organizational development processes for the protection against sexualized (peer) violence, which are oriented towards the highly personal rights and perspectives of young people. The discussion of and the views of young people on violence, sexuality, protection and participation are an integral part of participatory protection concepts.
