Belarus College Launches Powerful Anti-Drug Video Campaign

Zhitkovichi College Launches Anti-Drug Campaign: "Choose Life, Choose Health" The Zhitkovichi College in Belarus has launched a powerful new anti-drug campaign, using a short video to reach out to young people. The video, released on May 22nd, highlights five key reasons why students should avoid narcotics. These include the severe health risks, both physical and mental, the loss of personal control and freedom that addiction brings, and the potential legal repercussions. The video also underscores the importance of valuing genuine experiences and emotions over the artificial highs offered by drugs. "Narcotics ruin your health, both physically and mentally," explains one of the students featured in the video. Another student adds, "The risk of arrest and criminal charges is very real." The video concludes with a simple yet impactful message: "Choose a life without drugs. Be your own hero!" The college's initiative is a timely reminder of the ongoing struggle against drug abuse among young people. By using relatable imagery and a clear message, the campaign aims to encourage students to make healthy choices and lead fulfilling lives.
