Project Description:

El Proyecto colaborativo NO al Bullying, SÍ a una cultura de Paz promueve actividades reflexivas y de creación propositiva pensando en dar atención a la situación que viven miles de adolescentes en el mundo al enfrentar en silencio y con dolor el acoso escolar. En este sentido no se debe perder de vista que son tres los implicados: Víctima, Agresor y Testigo; así el golpe, la palabra que duele, o simplemente el ser ignorado, pueden convertirse en un serio problema personal y social que lastima a todos, por ello es necesario tomar acción para ser parte de la solución y no del problema. En NO al Bullying, SÍ a una cultura de Paz, estamos invitando a mejorar la convivencia en las escuelas mediante la construcción de ambientes de aprendizaje favorables, donde docentes, estudiantes y padres de familia se convierten en promotores de una cultura de paz para frenar los actos violentos de acoso, hostigamiento, marginación, etiquetado, enjuiciamiento y rechazo, tanto en los espacios físicos como virtuales; ya que lo único que causan, es lastimar y dejar en desventaja educativa a los considerados equivocadamente “minoría” o “débiles”.

English Translation:
The Collaborative Project NO to Bullying, YES to a Culture of Peace promotes reflective activities and creative proposals to address the situation experienced by thousands of adolescents around the world who face bullying in silence and with pain. In this sense, we must not lose sight of the fact that there are three people involved: Victim, Aggressor and Witness; so the blow, the word that hurts, or simply being ignored, can become a serious personal and social problem that hurts everyone, so it is necessary to take action to be part of the solution and not the problem. In NO to Bullying, YES to a Culture of Peace, we are inviting to improve coexistence in schools through the construction of favorable learning environments, where teachers, students and parents become promoters of a culture of peace to stop violent acts of bullying, harassment, marginalization, labeling, prosecution and rejection, both in physical and virtual spaces; since the only thing they cause, is to hurt and leave in educational disadvantage those wrongly considered “minority” or “weak”.
