- Abstract
INTRODUCTION: From terrorist attacks in 2015 the French Government has made laws to quickly increase the number of students leaving Junior High School with a proper first aid training. Beside these national measures, some local projects are being developed to promote first aid to a maximum of people. *MATERIAL AND METHODS: Implemented the European Erasmus+ project "112: Can I help You ?". A 3-year project has involved 5 countries (France, Poland, Czech Republic, Spain and Romania) to promote lifesaving lessons among European people. With several mobilities, students visited different places with professionals of medicine, lifesaving. They acted in short promoting pieces and created posters in relation to first aid techniques. *RESULTS: The project has been going on for 3 years. At that time, the authors of the program from France included a total of 300 people in the activities, who will be students and educators from five countries. The dissemination of the project is based on the high visibility of the videos and the posters created by the students themselves. Posters and videos can be found on different websites but also with temporary exhibitions in city halls, shopping malls. *CONCLUSIONS: Program has been effectively implemented in five Central European countries. Activities of pedagogues and persons without medical education may be an effective form of propagating first aid principles in accordance with the subject of PSC1. Further activity of the project contractors and analysis of the effectiveness of the forms of training activities undertaken by them is necessary.
