For Anti-Bullying Week, last week, the Student Union ran an Anti-Bullying tutorial at The Hub. Students were asked to participate in workshops and demonstrated how they would approach situations where bullying is present and how difficult situations could be handled.
Below are some of the topics discussed:
1. What is bullying?
2. Identify barriers
3. Explore solutions
4. Create safe spaces
We went through these topics with our fellow students and were able to discuss extensively possible solutions.
A theme that kept on coming up was the fact that everyone was different and had a different perspective on the topic of bullying. The students had different definitions for what they would consider bullying which were all valid. With that said, moving forward I suggest we be mindful and respectful of individuals around us #students #power #antibullyingweek #speakup #reachout #createSafeSpaces #standupagainstbullying
