The University of Jaen shows the materials for the promotion of health and emotional well-being of young people generated by the PROADEMO project to the City Council of Marmolejo.

It is a set of practical tools for the emotional support of adolescents aimed at educational, health and youth professionals, and young people themselves.

14/10/2024.- Researchers from the Department of Psychology of the University of Jaén (UJA) presented the materials generated in the PROADEMO project (‘PROmocionAnDo the health and EMOtional well-being of adolescents in the educational sector, health and society’) to representatives of the City Council of Marmolejo.

This presentation took place in the framework of the launching of the second edition of the PROCARE Marmolejo initiative, in which the Marmolejo consistory promotes and finances this program of the UJA with the collaboration of the Provincial Council of Jaén. The Vice Chancellor of Research and Knowledge Transfer of the UJA, Mª Victoria López and the Professor of Psychology at the UJA and main responsible for PROADEMO, Luis Joaquín García gave a copy of the materials to the Mayor, Manuel Lozano, and his Councillor for Governance, Tourism, Promotion and Youth, Pilar Lara.

This is a set of practical tools for emotional support of adolescents aimed at educational, health and youth professionals, and young people themselves. Its objective is to provide a series of free materials aimed at improving the skills of workers in these sectors when helping the adolescent population at risk of suffering emotional problems.

Specifically, the materials consist of a three-session emotional training guide for professionals; a 22-chapter practical tools guide for professionals, which is complemented by a triage tool to classify the seriousness and urgency of the most frequent incidents they may face in their interaction with young people; and a series of informative videos aimed at adolescents themselves to promote their resilience and increase their emotional literacy. In turn, PROADEMO offers classroom or online training courses to transfer this knowledge.

These materials, which can be downloaded free of charge from the project website, have been co-generated by an interdisciplinary group of experts in Psychology, Anthropology and Journalism, of which Luis Joaquín García himself has been a member, together with UJA researchers Lourdes Espinosa, José Antonio Muela, Jesús Sánchez, David Jiménez, Manuel Vivas, Álvaro Muela and Adelina Ocaña.

In the elaboration and edition of this kit, the PROADEMO project has had the collaboration and support of an External Advisory Board composed of entities such as: the Spanish Youth Institute (INJUVE), attached to the Ministry of Youth and Children, the Spanish Youth Council (CJE), the European Youth Information and Counselling Agency (ERYICA), the Princess of Girona Foundation (FPdGi), the Integral Health group of the FELGTBI+, the Asociación Española de Ayuda Mutua contra Fobia Social y Trastornos de Ansiedad (AMTAES), the Confederación de Organizaciones de Psicopedagogía y Orientación de España (COPOE), the Asociación Andaluza de Técnicos de la Juventud (AATJ) and the Asociación Asturiana para la atención y el cuidado de la infancia (ASACI).
