Welcome to the website of the Bilateral Contact Seminar “Bullying-Free Classrooms: Life Skills & Practical Tools”, targeted at Primary and Secondary Teachers, which will take place in Marathonas, Athens, Greece, from 9–11 October 2026.

The seminar is organized within the framework of eTwinning, bringing together educators from Greece and Italy to exchange good practices, develop collaborative ideas and explore effective strategies for creating safe, inclusive and supportive learning environments.

Bullying remains one of the major challenges faced by schools today, affecting students’ well-being, relationships and learning experiences. This seminar focuses on strengthening the skills of both teachers and students by promoting empathy, respect, communication, cooperation and resilience as essential life skills for preventing and addressing bullying.

Through interactive workshops, discussions and practical activities, participants will explore:

• strategies for building positive and inclusive classroom communities;
• tools for identifying, preventing and managing bullying behaviours;
• approaches that empower students to become active participants in creating safer school environments;
• digital tools and collaborative methodologies that support social and emotional learning;
• ideas for developing future eTwinning projects focusing on well-being, inclusion and active citizenship.

Teachers will have the opportunity to share experiences, learn from European colleagues and design innovative project ideas that place students at the centre of the learning process.

A bullying-free classroom is not only a place where negative behaviours are reduced; it is a learning environment where every student feels respected, valued, heard and empowered.

By developing life skills and practical tools, schools can foster a culture of kindness, acceptance and collaboration, preparing young people to become confident and responsible citizens.

The Bilateral Contact Seminar is hosted by the Greek National Support Organization (NSO) in cooperation with the Italian National Support Organization.
