A new anti-drug initiative titled ‘Me Momavlshi’ has been launched in schools across Georgia to raise awareness about the dangers of psychoactive substances and encourage healthy lifestyles among teenagers.
The campaign, set to begin this fall, will reach 60 public schools nationwide by the end of the year. As part of the first phase, law enforcement officers, psychologists, social workers and trained school safety officers will hold interactive sessions with 6th and 9thgrade students to discuss the harmful effects of drug use and ways to resist peer pressure.
Beyond classroom discussions, the program includes comic competitions, sports activities and educational workshopsdesigned to engage students creatively and reinforce positive choices.
The organizers stated that the campaign’s goal is not only prevention but also the creation of a safe, informed and health-conscious school environment. The initiative is supported by the Adjara Ministry of Education and Sport, with sessions initially planned in Tbilisi, Adjara and Kvemo Kartli before expanding nationwide.
The campaign’s coordinators have also developed a new educational module for school visits, emphasizing practical engagement. Simulation meetings were held to prepare facilitators for effective, age-appropriate communication with students.
