Three municipalities have signed a territorial pact against bullying and cyberbullying : the Adige Guà administrations, following a proposal from the middle school, will adopt prevention and training tools to combat bullying by young people against their peers or younger children.
In recent days, the civic hall of Roveredo di Guà hosted an unprecedented signing event in the Cologne area. After two years of work by the Dante Alighieri Comprehensive Institute of Cologna —a school serving students from Cologna, Pressana, and Roveredo di Guà—a joint document for bullying prevention was approved. It was signed not only by the principal of Cologna, Roberta Castellani, but also by mayors, representatives of several sports clubs, and school transportation managers. This so-called Territorial Community Pact aims to create common ground for discussion and collaboration to "promote effective prevention, counteraction, and awareness-raising actions, in order to create a safe and inclusive environment for young people."

For the comprehensive school, already certified last year by CSQA as an anti-bullying and anti-cyberbullying school, the goal will be to continue offering educational programs and workshops, opportunities for discussion and dialogue among students, and to establish support centers. Sports associations will be responsible for promoting positive values such as fair play and collaboration among athletes, while transportation companies will identify and report any inappropriate behavior by students during their commute to and from school. "For us mayors," Pastorello emphasized, "the Pact is a tool that encourages us to remain vigilant on this issue, engaging families and offering training sessions to raise awareness and educate parents and students on how to prevent bullying and cyberbullying."
