The Colorado Shakespeare Festival is branching out in its efforts to curb bullying among young people in Colorado schools. Beyond visiting schools with its "upstander" message, the festival – in partnership with the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence, also based at CU Boulder – has created an educational video.
One of the goals of the project is to empower students with an important message: you have the choice to make your world a safer place. Research shows that when you start thinking like an “upstander” instead of a bystander, our communities get a little safer.
Share the video in your classroom or group.
