Confident kids possess a number of skills that build on trust and self-confidence, self-assurance and strength, as well as courage and resolve.  Today we know that children only gradually mature into small personalities and that their development is very easy to disrupt.And we also know that courageous and confident children, who express their needs without fear, who trust themselves and walk through life with open eyes, rarely succumb to drugs and violence.

It is against this backdrop that E.ON Energie sponsors the FRIENDS project, which is dedicated to preventing addiction and violence among children of kindergarten age.FRIENDS does everything it can to ensure that kindergarten teachers are trained by educational professionals.The objective is to foster and build up kids’ confidence and problem-solving skills with a view to making them lastingly resistant to both drugs and violence.
