Nikolay Melikyan, the host of the “Open Platform” program, and Irina Alewert, the director of Global to Local, engaged in a discussion concerning the issue of child bullying in schools and kindergartens, the initiatives designed to prevent it, and insights from Sweden’s experience.

During her address, Irina emphasized that even if just one child experiences bullying, it constitutes a significant problem. This is because it sets off a chain reaction of bullying, involving the victim, the bullies, and a bystander group who passively and apathetically observe, all becoming part of the issue.
