• Football tournaments involving young people from other associations and/or schools
• Rehabilitation of detention infrastructure, including sports, sanitation and kitchen facilities

To ensure children are supported in developing their skills and life plans to achieve social and professional integration:

• Financial support for school fees, vocational training and income-generating activities tailored to each child's own plans
• Regular visits and meetings with families to support, educate and empower them in their parenting roles

To ensure children in conflict with the law become active advocates for their rights in society:
