Bullying…? This is the 21st Century. The age of the modern day man. I’m talking cars. i-Pods. Airplanes. Phones. Facebook :)
The age of drive-through chicken nuggets and Avatar 3D. The age of FREEDOM. Freedom to believe what i want, live where i want, buy what i want and listen to what i want.The age where we stand in the wake of heroes like Martin Luther King Jnr who stood up to the injustice of being judged by the colour of his skin. And we applauded him. The age of freedom…REALLY?

3 out of 5 students are bullied. That’s 2,211,851 young people in Aussie high-schools bullied. That’s almost 27 times an NRL Grand Final crowd. You see back in the day, string was used all the time in everyday life. Think about it. Yoyo’s. Home made fishing rods. Kites. When people wrapped up a parcel to send in the mail, they used a piece of string to tie around it to finish it up. When they boxed up their old love letters or memories, they finished it up with a piece of string. Enter The String Movement. Bullying…? Tie a piece of string around your wrist to show we’re not okay with it. Tie a piece of string around your wrist and say ‘It is finished!’

What an incredible few days in Indonesia seeing how UNICEF’s anti-bullying programmes are creating positive school environments so children feel safe to thrive and succeed. Young girls like Sripun and many more that I’ve met in Indonesia are our future. My 7 Fund for is on a mission to help children – especially girls – break down barriers that threaten to steal their potential away. We’re tackling bullying, violence, child marriage and missed education so children get the chance to realise their full potential.
