The House of Representatives received students from primary schools participating in the European anti-bullying programme SAFER - "SociAl competences and FundamEntal Rights for preventing bullying".
The children were welcomed as ambassadors of the programme by the President of the House of Representatives, Mrs Anita Demetriou, who also watched the imaginative audiovisual material they created for enlightenment and information.
Mrs Demetriou listened to the children's views with great interest and discussing with them how the phenomenon could be eliminated, she underlined: "We stand beside him/her who experiences bullying and against him/her who does it. No tolerance for such phenomena and behaviour. We all have a responsibility!" Only in this way, the Speaker of the House of Representatives pointed out, do we change society for the better by reacting to the phenomenon of bullying that is becoming a scourge and participating in its eradication.
The purpose of the SAFER project is to develop and implement an innovative method for the prevention of domestic violence and bullying in order to promote inclusive education. The programme is based on enhancing the acquisition of social and citizenship skills, as well as knowledge and promotion of shared positive and democratic values and fundamental rights, not only at the level of pupils (aged 10-14 years) and schools, but also at the community level.
