Safer space principles
The City of Vantaa’s youth centers have adopted safer space principles. The principles have been created together with young people. We want everyone to feel that they are safe and welcome in the youth centers. The goal is that nobody be subjected to any form of discrimination, bullying, harassment, or violence. This entails, first and foremost, active measures to prevent the above and intervening in situations where the above occurs.
