JAKARTA – Indonesia places fifth out of 78 countries with the most school bullying incidents, the Federation of Indonesian Teachers Associations reports. As an education enthusiast, Korindo Foundation took no time to act on the issue, joining forces with University of Indonesia graduate and psychologist Maya Sita Darlina, MS.
Darlina was asked to give a three-day bullying and violence prevention seminar on February 20-23, 2024 at three Jakartan high schools: SMA 55 Jakarta (Jakarta 55 High), SMA Fatahillah (Fatahillah High), and SMA Perguruan Cikini (Perguruan Cikini High).
Her talk covered bullying behavior, its impacts as a whole, and response strategies for victims and witnesses. Students were also given a case study as a learning material to work with.
