Abstract
Students of preschool education program were submitted to an up-graded informal Sun-safety education project. Statistically
significant improvement was observed comparing their knowledge for pre- and post-education intervention regarding solar UVradiation.
Additional competences and some basic knowledge would enhance effective professional development and
competences of future teachers, protecting children from UV exposure. It would promote initiatives for preventive measures in
students as well, thereby reducing their risk for skin cancer too
