Bully Busters
The project is aimed at dealing with the growing phenomenon of bullying at school. The problem is very serious as nowadays apart from physical violence, more often students suffer from virtual one. It seems crucial to prevent such behaviour already at the lower level of education, i.e. primary school. As quite many European schools have to deal with this problem, it maybe be beneficial to share the experience. Students will try to find a solution of how to stand against bullying both as a victim and witness. Creating materials concerning anty-bullying campaign at school (ppt, posters, short movies) students can share their own experience, prevent aggressive behaviour and defend themselves against violence at school.
