This article presents the experiences of collaboration between the research team from the Department of Social Prevention and Rehabilitation at the Institute of Pedagogy, Jagiellonian University, and various entities within the local social prevention system for children and young people in Krakow.
The research, conducted between 2019 and 2023, focused on diagnosing community resources for prevention and designing and implementing prevention programs. The diagnosis formed a basis for developing educational and preventive programs for children and adolescents in Krakow schools. These programs were carried out in psychological and educational counselling centers as well as primary schools, with some undergoing evaluation.
This article is a report summarizing the research team’s experiences over several years of collaboration with the local community in Krakow. The research was based on evidence-based practice and the principles of tailoring interventions to specific needs.
The study methodology involved analyzing research reports, prevention and educational programs, notes, and class registers compiled over multiple years of research into interinstitutional cooperation in Krakow. Collaboration between academic research teams, schools, and other educational institutions—particularly educational counseling centers—is an important and necessary component of the system for preventing risk behaviors among children and adolescents.
