CONCRETE VALUES 

Values such as prevention, education, humility, loyalty and resilience were emphasised, as well as the importance of listening to children and creating safe spaces where they can find people to help them.

Empathy and becoming aware of all the problems that exist -including not only the victims but also those who commit harassment-, was also addressed. The usefulness of learning by playing was also touched upon, with contributions such as that of FixIt.
