From Finland to the Czech Republic
The KiVa® programme – from the Finnish Kiusaamista Vastaan, “against bullying” – is a scientifically proven programme to prevent bullying in schools. It was developed by the University of Turku for the Finnish Ministry of Education and is now being adopted by schools across the developed world.

SCHOLA EMPIRICA has been granted a research licence by the Finnish partners until 2024, when the programme can be piloted in the Czech environment.
All materials have been translated by professional translators and locally adapted by experts in education and bullying. The research licence is currently being piloted, inspired by the implementation of the KiVa programme in different parts of the world, not only in Finland.
