School and Gender-Based Violence
Book Summary
This work offers a rigorous and practical analysis of school and gender-based violence, two of the most pressing problems in today's society. Aimed especially at teachers, the book combines a solid conceptual foundation with concrete proposals for action to improve coexistence in educational centers. Through a pedagogical and innovative approach, it explores the multiple manifestations of violence, the legislative framework that regulates it, and the influence of the media, providing tools to foster tolerance, respect, and gender equality in the classroom.
What is it about?
The book addresses violence as a constant in our sociocultural context, visible through the media in the form of street fights, abuse of minors and women, aggression in the educational sphere, and property damage. It focuses on bullying and gender-based violence as priority problems that require the active intervention of teachers to instill attitudes of tolerance and respect in school coexistence. The work delves into the concept of violence in its various manifestations, with special emphasis on gender-based violence from a legislative and educational perspective. In addition, it proposes concrete actions to improve coexistence, analyzes the regulations that support it, and examines the influence of the media. It is presented as a work of pedagogical innovation, born from the desire to change and carry out small, sustainable innovations, highlighting that true innovation requires time, training, reflection, and the will to experiment, accepting the right to make mistakes.
