BULLYING PROJECT




Bullying is a very dangerous social behavious which is not good for people. Their safety and inner and outer peace is endangered. Let´s see what specialists write obout bullying.
Bullying is a form of aggressive behaviour manifested by the use of force or coercion to affect others, particularly when the behavior is habitual and involves an imbalance of power. It can include verbal harassment, physical assault or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of race, religion, gender, sexuality, or ability. The "imbalance of power" may be social power and/or physical power. The victim of bullying is sometimes referred to as a "target".
Bullying consists of three basic types of abuse – emotional, verbal, and physical. It typically involves subtle methods of coercion such as intimidation. Bullying can be defined in many different ways. The UK currently has no legal definition of bullying, while some U.S. states have laws against it,
Bullying ranges from simple one-on-one bullying to more complex bullying in which the bully may have one or more 'lieutenants' who may seem to be willing to assist the primary bully in his bullying activities. Bullying in school and the workplace is also referred to as peer abuse. Robert W. Fuller has analyzed bullying in the context of rankism.
Bullying can occur in any context in which human beings interact with each other. This includes school, church, family, the workplace, home, and neighborhoods. It is even a common push factor in migration. Bullying can exist between social groups, social classes, and even between countries (see jingoism). In fact, on an international scale, perceived or real imbalances of power between nations, in both economic systems and in treaty systems, are often cited as some of the primary causes of both World War I and World War II.
Slovak students decided to organize the poster competition about bullying. See its results.

THOUGHTS AND IDEAS ABOUT HOLOCAUST


When we say "HOLOCAUST" everybody knows it did not have nything in common with peace. Here are some ideas of a Romanian student about holocaust, read them...
Thoughts and feelings
The Holocaust was a terrible period of time in the history of mankind. The word itself makes me think of all those innocent people who died for nothing, of all the blood baths and most of all of the sheer human cruelty.
When the Nazis came to power in Germany in January 1933, the adoption of systematic antisemitic measures was imediately infringed. The crucial part was played by some peoples’ grandparents. Anyone having three or four Jewish grandparents was considered a Jew. And following this aforementioned adoption was the death of approximately six million Jews, innocent people just like all the others who suffered the most terrible tortures.
Jews were deceived and taken to concentration camps, labor camps and horrible extermination camps.Terrifying thoughts cross my mind when I think of those suffering people.I feel my heart full of anger, pain, sadness and regret that there was no one to help them out. The Nazis could not understand that the Jews were people too, had families, were more or less happy with the life they lived, but nobody had a right to take it away from them.Nobody deserves a death like the one they had. I can hardly imagine how a person can bring about so much suffering to their peers without any remorse. The Jews were gassed, made to work until they died, some were left to die because of the miserable conditions heading for a slow, painful death, passive and others had no right to choose and were killed immediately.
Taking into account all the connotations of the word Jew, terrible crimes were committed, but if you go deeper, we realize that among those Jews there were children too. And the children were killed with the same cruelty irrespective of all this. They were all lied to, either by being told that they were taken to the sauna which was actually the gas chamber, or that they would be given many things, a bunch of outright lies just to make them go smoothly and oppose no resistance.In some pictures that I've seen depicting prisoners, all the girls had a glitter of hope in their eyes that they where going somewhere better, and when they realized what was going to happen it was like the pictures began to cry.
I can never understand how the soldiers who where around the gas chambers did not lift a finger when they heard a baby crying, or somebody begging and fighting for his life, they did not do anything or feel the urge to help a peer in need.
During this period of time, many people were killed by inhuman methods.They were treated like animals, marked, mocked, marginalized and tortured and no one did anything to stop the massacre.
Holocaust, in my opinion, was the bloodiest period full of cruelty and pure evil that even now after almost 80 years it evokes a deep sense of pain, but gives me strength to fight and try to make the world better for all people who died then.

HUMAN RIGHTS CALENDAR MADE BY ROMANIAN STUDENTS

Women won Nobel Peace Prize 2011


Romanian students were having a round table and discuss about women won Nobel Peace Prize for the year 2011.

The Nobel Peace Prize 2011 was awarded jointly to Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkul Karman "for their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women’s rights to full participation in peace-building work".
Women own Nobel Peace Prize

The Nobel Peace Prize 2011 was awarded jointly to Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkul Karman "for their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women’s rights to full participation in peace-building work".

Gbowee won the Nobel prize along with Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Yemen's Arab Spring activist Tawakkul Karman.
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf became Africa’s first woman to win a free presidential election. Tawakkul Karman began pushing for change in Yemen long before the Arab Spring. They share a commitment to women’s rights in regions where oppression is common, and on Friday they shared the Nobel Peace Prize.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee honoured women for the first time in seven years, and in selecting Karman it also recognized the Arab Spring movement championed by Karman is the first Arab woman ever to win the peace prize, which includes a 10 million kronor ($1.5 million) award that will be divided among the winners. No woman or sub-Saharan African had won the prize since 2004, when the committee honoured Wangari Maathai of Kenya, who mobilized poor women to fight deforestation by planting trees.millions of often anonymous activists from Tunisia to Syria.
The Nobel Committee on Friday hailed Gbowee for having "organised women across ethnic and religious dividing lines to bring an end to the long war in Liberia, and to ensure women's participation in elections".
