EU-OSHA has made its way into
children’s hearts with Napo, the cartoon character that teaches basic health
and safety knowledge at the primary school level. As part of a series of free
OSH education toolkits provided by the Napo Consortium and EU-OSHA, Napo covers topics that children aged 7 to
11 are likely to encounter at home and at school, including safety signs, risks
to the skin and back, and the identification of risks and hazards. The
educational aids come with lesson plans, suggested activities and accompanying
downloadable resources, and are intended to guide teachers on how to incorporate OSH messages
into existing curriculum. For more information and to download the toolkit, click here.
