PREVENT

At Respect Zone, we take proactive steps to prevent online violence by developing concrete, accessible tools adapted to all audiences.

Through educational programs, learning resources, and awareness campaigns, we empower young people, parents, and professionals to understand the risks, adopt best practices, and build more respectful digital spaces.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

We conduct interventions (awareness sessions, training, workshops) in schools, associations, universities, local authorities, sports and cultural centers, trade shows, and businesses throughout France.

Based on dialogue, these interventions draw on the participants' experiences and knowledge to collaboratively build a clear and appropriate framework for discussion.

We adapt to all audiences according to their age, context, and sensitivities.

Together, we define key concepts to foster understanding and share best practices for responding effectively to cyberbullying, while using the law as a framework and guide in our discussions.

Our goal: to provide long-term support for establishing a climate of prevention, protection, and support for situations involving harassment and violence.

This is why we also train ambassadors or designated contacts capable of sustainably raising awareness of these issues among their peers.

The association

Because no one is immune to cyberviolence, we work with a wide range of stakeholders in diverse contexts.

Whatever your situation, contact us and we will find a way to tailor our services to your needs.

Because bullying in schools now extends into the digital world, we work with students of all ages to support them in their online lives.

We offer awareness sessions on their use of digital tools, cyberbullying, and online violence. We also lead workshops focused on topics such as online hate, racism, antisemitism, sexism, and anti-LGBT hate, for example.

Finally, we also train student ambassadors, supported by designated adults in their schools, to learn how to identify situations and take action against bullying.

Because they support young people in their daily work, because they are parents, and because adults are not immune to online violence, we offer training for adults in companies and all types of organizations through webinars and in-person workshops.

Understanding the different uses of digital technology, learning how to listen to others, knowing the various procedures, and being aware of one's responsibilities allows for a better understanding of the risks and thus enabling us to adapt our reactions to situations of violence.

Because sports are not immune to cyberbullying, we also support athletes of all ages in addressing the risks associated with their sport: online reputation, phone use in locker rooms, etc.

We tailor our general awareness programs to the specific issues they may encounter in their sporting activities.

Sports professionals—coaches, trainers, and administrators—also benefit from our support to establish a clear and respectful framework.

Respect Zone offers various tools to promote prevention and action against online hate. Some of these are freely accessible, while others are resources that require support from Respect Zone for their implementation.

Respect Zone's work is based on the conviction that, with a little bit of legal framework, prevention, commitment – and a lot of hard work! – the internet and its social networks can be spaces for dialogue and inclusion thanks to everyone's actions.

The Respect Zone Label allows everyone to get involved in preventing cyberviolence and combating online hate. Obtaining the Label requires adopting the Respect Zone Charter and implementing actions to ensure its compliance, including awareness-raising or training initiatives.

The Label is therefore aimed at everyone: internet users of all ages, schools and higher education institutions, community and cultural centers, local authorities, businesses, and other associations. Depending on your organization, Respect Zone offers certification pathways that can be adapted to your specific needs and goals.

BECAUSE CYBERBULLYING IS HIDING.

LET'S LEARN TO OPEN OUR EYES.

Cyberbullying encompasses insidious and hidden actions. To raise awareness among those around victims about the invisible signs (parents, siblings, classmates, teachers, sports coaches, etc.) and to provide compassionate support to victims of cyberbullying, the NGO Respect Zone is launching its "Respect Zone" app, where users can find resources, assistance, and advice.

Developed with the help of its partners, including the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Department of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, DILCRAH (Interministerial Delegation for the Fight against Racism, Anti-Semitism and LGBT-phobia), META (a French organization), the ACVS 49 association, developer Lucas Costier, the legal design firm Amurabi, and UX/UI designer Geoffrey Dorne, the app is the second version. You can find the original project here.

Discover the Respect Zone App, a support and guidance tool to help you deal with cyberbullying. This tool is tailored to your situation to support you, equip you, and help you recognize the invisible signs of cyberbullying and protect your loved ones. Because every year worldwide, bullying affects 1 in 3 children according to UNICEF, and in France, nearly 1 million children are in distress due to bullying, 25% of whom have considered suicide.

OUR CHARTERS

The association invites internet users, digital players, local authorities, schools, businesses and all other structures that choose to adopt its label to commit to its "Respect Zone" charter.

This one-page charter is a commitment to respecting others, moderating their comments, and maintaining a respectful online environment.

It can be adapted to the needs and specificities of each space; we will work with you to create your own charter.

What forms do violence and harassment take in our digital spaces?

How can we protect ourselves and respond to online violence?

To answer these questions, we are offering a traveling exhibition to explore the sometimes complex concepts of violence and harassment, as well as the forms they can take in digital spaces. During this journey, visitors will find definitions and explanations of these concepts, numerous interactive and engaging workshops, audio testimonies, and examples of cyberviolence. They will also have the opportunity to interact with our speakers and volunteers.

Our aim is to raise awareness among children and teenagers about cyberviolence, online hate, and harassment, providing them with the tools and strategies for more conscious digital use. To achieve this goal, we are also raising awareness among families and caregivers about online risks.

By engaging with all stakeholders, we aim to create a safer and more caring online environment, thereby promoting the well-being and development of young people.
