Is there a relation between school bullying and gender differences? What is the impact of relational bullying on adolescents? How can we contrast gender violence amongst the new generations?
The Fondazione Mondo Digitale is a partner of the new European Project GEM -Gender Equality Matters: Tackling Gender-based Violence". The main objective of the many project activities (research, education, awareness raising, communications campaign, etc.) will be to increase communities’ awareness of gender violence, promoting the adoption of correct behaviour that respect differences amongst human beings.

- Dublin City University, Ireland (lead partner)
- Kentro Merimnas Oikogeneias Kai Paidiou, Greece
