AIM OF THE PROJECT
The general aim of the project is to prevent homophobic cyber-bullying among young people: a form of bullying that takes place over digital devices and platforms like mobile phones, computers, social media and tablets perpetrated against LGBTQI youth (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intrasexual).
The main objectives will be reached through the attainment of the following specific objectives:
1. Promotion of a respectful language used through digital devices and platforms referred to LGBTQI;
2. Spreading a respectful and appropriate language against LGBTQI, particularly in the use of internet and social media;
3. Creating a permanent network of youth associations and Youth Workers to promote prevention and raise awareness on the theme of homophobic cyberbullying.
Specifically, the proposed virtual activities involve youth workers, giving them the opportunity to develop a virtual exchange project with other colleagues from different countries. Thanks to the project, youth workers will become true factors in preventing homophobic cyberbullying by guiding and supporting young people inside and outside the consortium.
