Teacher Dina Ribau, from the Professional School of Agriculture and Rural Development in Vagos, whom we thank for her visit and words, shares her views on the impact of the sessions of the ‘Protecting is in your hands’ Project, in the context of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), emphasising the importance of clear information, prevention and open dialogue to support young people in making more informed choices.
