President’s House Launches National Campaign Against Youth Bullying

Israel’s National Forum for Combating Ostracism and Bullying among Children and Youth launched a nationwide campaign on September 10 under the auspices of the President’s House. The forum brings together government ministries, public systems, civil-society organizations and businesses. Its rollout includes a digital campaign involving public figures and distribution through retail chains, cinemas, tourism companies, delivery services and local authorities. President Isaac Herzog called the rise in bullying an emergency and urged the public to intervene, while the President’s House also opened a website consolidating information, assistance and support contacts.
