Educating Argentinian children in risk prevention

The Argentine Firefighters Foundation continues to educate and train schoolchildren as key players in preventing and reducing risks in the home.

This year, five volunteer firefighter associations have implemented the “Todos en Alerta” campaign, which focuses on creating a culture of prevention in communities and strengthening their resilience. In total, more than 2,800 children have been trained.

The main topics covered during the activities are: home hazards, school evacuation procedures, and electrical hazards.

Teachers at participating schools highlight the quality of the educational materials provided to the children during each activity, which allows them to continue working on these topics both in the classroom and at home.

During 2025, the Argentine Firefighters Foundation trained more than 5,000 children in Argentine schools alongside volunteer firefighters.

The Todos en Alerta (Everyone on Alert) campaign focuses on risk prevention in the home, electrical hazards, safe mobility on public roads, and evacuation in schools. Together with students and teachers, firefighters teach good practices that can prevent common accidents.

Each student takes home a book to share with their family so that adults can learn together about common risks in the home.

In 2026, the Argentine Firefighters Foundation launched a new campaign called Ecoguardians, training children in forest fire prevention and environmental care.
