PREVENTION OF JUVENILE DELINQUENCY AND PROGRAM OF (SECONDARY) PREVENTION OF UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOR FORMS AND PROTECTION OF STUDENTS IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS OF SARAJEVO CANTON

Summary/Abstract: The fight against various types of unacceptable behavior of children and minors has been especially present in the last hundred years. Here, we primarily mean the behaviors that led to the commission of criminal and misdemeanor acts, while the topic of preventing such behavior is present in the field of theories of criminal law, psychology, and pedagogy of a younger date. However, it is essential and increasingly relevant. The family, and especially the school, represents an environment in which the socio-emotional development of the child can be monitored, i.e., in which particular socio-emotional needs of the child that are not met can be noticed. Given that the consequences of long-term neglect of these needs can lead to the risk of the child becoming a perpetrator or victim of violence in their environment, it is essential to inform teachers systematically, and professional associates about ways to recognize and respond to certain behaviors in children point that some of the child's needs are not being met. The Sarajevo Canton has implemented a program for recognizing and protecting children from risk factors, which includes a methodology for recognizing, monitoring and responding in cases of recognizing some forms of behavior that may indicate the risk that some of the children's needs are not met and that this may lead to behaviors in a misdemeanor or criminal offense. This Program, after a series of interventions and recommendations, was renamed the Program of(secondary) prevention of unacceptable forms of behavior and protection of students in primary schools in Sarajevo Canton. Precisely because of its importance, adequate prevention, and fight against juvenile delinquency are the topics that the authors deal within this article, trying to point out the importance of a systematic approach in preventing such behavior and the adequate intervention if such behavior occurs. The authors describe the importance and types of prevention, make an overview of this Program, pointing to the subjects and their roles in this Program, as well as the presenting process and its implementation.
