Public ethics enters the classroom: second edition of the #DocuforumAVAF at the IES Antoni Llidó in Jávea

Jávea, June 3, 2025.- The Valencian Anti-Fraud Agency (AVAF) has held a new edition of the #DocuforumAVAF at the IES Antoni Llidó, aimed at students of the fourth year of ESO.

 

The session was led by Pilar Moreno, senior training technician in the Area of Training, Participation, Communication and Relations with other entities of the AVAF, who has energized the debate on ethical values in the public service and the role of public institutions in the fight against fraud.

 

With this initiative, the Valencian Anti-Fraud Agency reaffirms its commitment to training in integrity and prevention of corruption among young people. Training in ethical and democratic values from compulsory secondary education is essential to build societies that are more just, transparent and committed to the common good.

 

The AVAF is grateful for the collaboration of Professor Aina Moragues for opening the doors again to this training experience, which contributes to raising awareness among students about the importance of individual and collective commitment in the promotion of public ethics.
