Peer Violence. Sexualized violence among young people in the context of youth and youth association work
BMBF joint project of the University of Hildesheim Foundation, Landshut University of Applied Sciences and the University of Kassel
The joint project focuses on sexualized violence among young people in youth and youth association work. The aim is to show what young people experience as a disregard for their personal boundaries and in what form this sexualized transgression of boundaries is expressed. In addition, the different organizational contexts in which young people experience sexualized violence and how educators in youth and youth association work react to this will be investigated. By means of a Germany-wide online survey of young people(http://www.safer-places.de/onlinebefragung/), their perceptions, experiences and views on sexualized border crossings are collected. Based on this, narrative-generating interviews will be conducted with selected young people and those working in various pedagogical areas of youth and youth association work will be interviewed. From this, action-guiding impulses for intervention and prevention work will be derived. The special feature of the practical transfer is a participation-oriented development and implementation process with the professionals and young people.
