3:51 pm
want is for young people have written messages against bullying i noticed that some of them are actually in english that's because in french the word bully as such doesn't exist instead it's the one nation of harassment service employees. which makes it even harder for french students to shift the sense of blame and shame because of being the target of physical or verbal abuse but understanding the mechanisms of bullying goes a long way and it's proven the support from pages is the- effective response. which is white student time passages like the young people behind me are involved in. raiaising awareness take a look. you don't. for high school students are addressing a group of ten year olds. customs manliness

look out for cases of bullying. more than three thoususand schol staff have already been trained andd every year we hold a traiaining session the goal now is to reach out to parents the entire communinity needs to be more aware so that eveveryone cn identify billings. senior it's not an easy behavior to identify. mostly because victims don't often speak out. at jack camano high school a special adult unit has been created with the aim of approaching billy's individually a surprise a method developed by a swedish psychologist anna told cass. what is s it calleled a year of. is identical with this method is to deal with harassment by talking about it so rather than punishing students we encourage them to discuss things and to empathize. the method has proved efficient and diffuse tense between. and helping make sure everyone has a right to a safe bullying free education. in france as elsewhere the abuse doesn't stop at school
3:54 pm
gates and a growing number of french children so they've been on the receiving end of cyber bullying. that't's aspect of the issue is all the more challenging to address the french authorities and activists because of the globalized nature of the social media platforms with the abuse takes place take a look. mmhm this cyberbullying is a modern take on old f fashioneded schoolyayard bullying. which is impacting increasing numbers of young people 7% have been harassed online and that figure jumps 222% for eighteen to twenty four year olds. for the past f fifteen years this organizazation hasas been helpig victims and professionals to tackle the issue which social media has made even worse. coconfessing about keeping easir to deliver to the violence when the violence virtual and later hidden behind a screen. you wouldn't say the same thing face to face. fivive but there will be more witnesses. the team like attention like adequate for the v victims thehe
3:55 pm
biggest source of trauma with cyber bullylying. is that itt doesn't stop at the school gates it follows you home. yeah the ministry for e education has put in placee an anti cybeberbullylying campaign. pars can now even buy insurance to protect their children against the hararms caused by social media. a sign of just how big ththe problem m has become. but without the help of social media platforms it's difficult to put in place measures with any real clouds. facebook relies on the system of reporting offensive content while others like ticked off follow different tax rather than deleting hateful comments. tick tock in naples uses t to filter them. overruled platforms try to avoid deleting content all rights thanks a lot that i can without scientific if it's how the internet works moderation happens after posting everybodydy in theoriess free to post whatever they want. nobody asked for permission beforehand yeah for them it's a question of american culture where freedom of expression is all important.
