The outdoor rules
Every year, the SAMAN group has encouraged parents to familiarize themselves with and respect the rules that apply to children's and teenagers' outdoor time. The main focus has been on changes in the fall when the group publishes advertisements to remind parents and children of the change in outdoor time. More forms of the outdoor rules can be found HERE
Here you can find the outdoor rules in English, Polish, Arabic, Spanish, Kurdish and Filipino: https://menntastefna.is/tool/4375/
You can buy the magnet with the outdoor rules and a poster and, for example, municipalities have ordered a magnet and had the relevant municipality's logo placed on the advertisement.
If you want to order a magnet or a shirt, send an email to fjolprent@fjolprent.is

Let's stand together, choose care instead of liberalism and say NO to increased access to alcohol
For decades, Iceland has been known for measures to combat alcohol use by children and young people. The collective power of society to reduce alcohol use by young people has attracted attention all over the world, and these actions have become an export product today as the Icelandic prevention model. A major factor in this success in Iceland is limited access to alcohol, including state-run liquor stores, limited opening hours, age limit of 20, etc.
It is therefore remarkable to observe how certain parties in the government place great emphasis on increasing access to alcohol. It should not be forgotten that this actually increases access not only for adults, but also for children and young people, as the online sale of alcohol is an easy way to reach them.
Those of us who support Samanhópðn wholeheartedly agree with the words of the many parties and organizations that have come forward with statements where Alþingi is encouraged to change the law and prevent the online sale of alcohol from being allowed, for the good of everyone, but especially for the benefit of children and young people.
A letter was sent to all municipalities at the end of May, where municipalities are encouraged to remind the message of the SAMAN group for the summer. Also, all primary schools in the country received a letter at the beginning of June asking the school administrators to send a letter to the parents of children graduating from the 10th grade this spring, reminding them that we continue to be responsible for our children, even though they have finished primary school.
