Various regional authorities in Colombia, Argentina, and Mexico are implementing community-based programs focused on child safety and social integration.

In Becerril, Colombia, the National Police launched the 'Cine al Barrio' initiative. This program uses audiovisual materials and educational talks to promote family values, communication, and the protection of children's rights during school holidays.

In Argentina, the Ministry of Human Development is conducting workshops to combat bullying and grooming. Through the 'Escucha Segura' operation and specialized training at schools like the José Manuel Estrada Commercial School, officials aim to provide students and parents with tools to recognize digital and physical risks.

In Lázaro Cárdenas, Mexico, Mayor Miriam Soto introduced the 'Policía Amigo' program at Octavio Legarreta Primary School. The initiative brings together municipal police, traffic officers, civil protection, and firefighters to build trust and establish security personnel as allies for students.
