Raise awareness, free speech, open debate…: France Télévisions has been leading the fight against school bullying for ten years now. HAS On the occasion of the National Day Against School Bullying, November 7, a look back at the group's commitment to the fight against this scourge.
Pain sufferers: they manifest themselves : from February 2015, even before the creation of the National Day against School Bullying, France Télévisions broadcast this film by Andrea Rawlins-Gaston and offered on this occasion an unprecedented system at the time, including a dedicated platform allowing victims to express themselves freely.
A year later, the public audiovisual group broadcast the fiction Marion, 13 years forever. Adapted from the book by Nora Fraisse and recounting the drama experienced by her daughter Marion, a teenager who committed suicide in 2013 after being harassed by her classmates, this film will be one of the strong markers of France Télévisions' actions. Its impact will be considerable in the fight against school bullying, raising real awareness within society. The years pass, and the mobilization gains momentum, while tongues loosen.
