Asociación Española para la Prevención del Acoso Escolar


Hello everyone, today I wanted to share with you a web page about bullying that I have found. The website is called AEPAE which stands for Asociación Española para la Prevención del Acoso Escolar, or the Spanish Association for the Prevention of School Bullying. It is a non-profit Spanish organization made up of a team of psychologists, teachers, social workers, lawyers, self-defense experts, and even parents of bullying victims. All of them are working to prevent and fight bullying in schools across Spain.
The website offers information about bullying, cyberbullying, emotional education and the protocol to follow in those cases. It also provides training programs for professionals, workshops and tools for students, parents and teachers. AEPAE focuses on empowering students while also educating the adults around them. In addition, they have done national conferences and campaigns to prevent bullying.
Another great feature you can find on the site is that AEPAE organizes free summer camps for kids who have been victims of bullying, offering them a safe space to heal, connect, and build self-esteem. 
Reading about AEPAE and the work they do really makes me reflect on the importance of having dedicated organizations and people actively working to prevent bullying. What stands out to me about this website is the human commitment behind this initiative. How different professionals are all coming together for a common cause.
The fact that they include parents, teachers and victims in their work shows how important it is to involve the entire community in the fight against bullying. Sometimes we forget that bullying is not an individual problem, and it is actually a systemic one. It takes everyone to create a real change in our society. Since it is a non-profit organization, you can donate to the organization if you want to help too!

I believe that learning about this initiative helps us understand that we are not powerless against bullying. And that we can participate if we want to make schools safer. It has also reminded me of how crucial it is to say informed about the organizations in my country, because I did not know that AEPAE existed until I found their website.

    Hi, thank you for this great article, it was fascinating. I believe websites like this should be shared more widely, especially with parents, so they can better understand bullying and learn what to do if their child is being bullied or is bullying others.

    Reading this made me realize that preventing bullying isn’t just the responsibility of parents or schools, it requires the involvement of the whole community. I also really appreciate that the organization offers summer camps for kids, giving them a safe space to heal and grow.

    Additionally, I came across another helpful website: StopBullying.gov. It covers many important topics related to bullying and includes a variety of scientific articles on bullying and prevention strategies.

New Definition of Bullying

 Hi everyone! The World Anti-Bullying Forum, together with UNESCO, created a Working group for establishing a new definition of school bullying. Its new definition keeps the idea that bullying requires unwanted repetitive aggressiveness and imbalance of power, and adds the idea that this power imbalance is supported by societal and institutional norms. The emphasis is now in the idea that bullying is not an affair among students but a social process. The new definition is this one: School bullying is a damaging social process that is characterized by an imbalance of power driven by social (societal) and institutional norms. It is often repeated and manifests as unwanted interpersonal behaviour among students or school personnel that causes physical, social, and emotional harm to the targeted individuals or groups, and the wider school community. You can find the document where it is explained  here . Fes

Salutogenic approach and a personal opinion

  As I briefly mentioned in my previous post, on the website called PDA Bullying , among various resources, there is a section dedicated to explain the Salutogenic approach . After doing some research, it becomes clear that this approach gets its name because its main goal is to promote health and well-being . The platform aims to address bullying from this perspective, adopting a strength-based approach that focuses on individuals' potential and the creation of a cooperative community working toward a shared goal . It slightly reminds me of the No Blame Approach we studied in class, as it also refers to a method based on compassion and a solution-focused outlook , rather than assigning blame. Their aim is not simply to act against bullying, but rather to overcome it , moving beyond a simplistic understanding of bullying as just a dynamic between two individuals. Instead, they view it as a broader social process . For this reason, the protocol designed and implemented by...

The Simpsons: Bull-E

  Bull-E - The Simpsons (Season 26, Episode 21) The Simpsons has reflected bullying as a complex issue through their episodes, whether through Bart’s pranks, Nelson’s struggles, or Springfield’s collective response, the show highlights the importance of addressing bullying thoughtfully and empathetically.  Many schools and communities have anti-bullying policies, but the debates arise about how to enforce them without oppressing free expression or over-penalizing minor infractions. The episode of The Simpsons reflects these concerns by showing the challenges of finding a balance. It highlights how good intentions, like preventing bullying (passing an Anti-Bullying law), can sometimes go way too far, leading to unintended consequences. Also, it brings up the difficulty of bullying’s definition, what feels like bullying to one person might seem harmless to another, that is Homer’s storyline, which reminds us that our words and actions, even if unintended, can impact on others d...
