Description
The Nordic Anti-Bullying Network (NABO) is a collaborative initiative uniting organizations from the Nordic and Baltic countries with a shared mission to prevent and combat bullying. Established to foster stronger regional partnerships, NABO provides a platform for members to exchange best practices, delve into research, and develop joint projects. The network’s activities are guided by the principle of finding common ground to create impactful, evidence-based solutions that address bullying across diverse contexts.
NABO’s operations are structured around regular engagement: members convene virtually three to four times a year and meet in person annually to strengthen connections and facilitate in-depth discussions. These gatherings serve as opportunities for members to share insights from their daily work, discuss emerging trends, and explore new research findings. Moreover, NABO members collaborate to develop initiatives and can jointly apply for funding to support activities that align with the network’s objectives.
This presentation will detail NABO’s framework and the value of a regional approach to anti-bullying efforts. Examples of projects and shared practices will be highlighted. By prioritizing collaboration and leveraging regional strengths, NABO demonstrates the potential of united efforts in creating safer environments for children and young people. This session will allow for interested actors in the Nordic-Baltic region to ask questions and to explore their possibilities in joining NABO.
NABO exemplifies the power of collaboration in addressing a critical global challenge, providing a good example for sustainable action against bullying.
