Sexual Risks and Capacities of Young People

ARK and Brook NI have developed a peer-led educational resource to address sexual risks among young people.  The objective was to facilitate sexual capacity and confidence building with young people in Northern Ireland who are at the start of their sexual careers.  The project was based on data from the Young Life and Times Survey on sexual grooming and sexual experiences.  An online resource has been developed, which highlights information, definitions, research facts, and scenarios on sexual grooming, friendship, love and exploitation.  To find out more, visit: www.ark.ac.uk/ylt/results/YLT-Brook-KE-project.html  This project was co-funded by the ESRC's Knowledge Exchange Programme.
