Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Due to the success of the first two phases of
the campaign, a decision has been made to run a third phase.
The third phase will build on active bystander training/messaging
which was delivered in the second phase with clear examples of how
to safely intervene when violent language is used, to prevent the
situation from escalating.
Additional resources will be created for schools and colleges and
for parents.
The GM VRU is seeking to commission a third
phase of the I am greater campaign. The campaign is aimed at young
people in GM and encourages them to be greater than violence by
identifying with positive role models and being an active
bystander. The third phase of the campaign will build on the first
two phases, and include young people in the design and creation of
campaign materials. The total amount of funding to be awarded is
£50,000.
