H.E. Pasi Tuominen, Ambassador of Finland to the Czech Republic, recently had the honour of welcoming headmasters from Czech schools recognized for excellence in implementing the KiVa Anti-Bullying Programme. The event, held at the ambassador’s residence in cooperation with Schola Empirica, celebrated their dedication to creating safer, more inclusive school environments.
Developed in Finland, the KiVa Programme is an internationally acclaimed initiative that provides educators with effective tools to prevent and respond to bullying. Its growing success in Czech schools is a testament to the strength of Finnish-Czech cooperation in education and social innovation. The Embassy of Finland is proud to support initiatives that empower youth, foster well-being, and promote core values of respect, dignity, and inclusion in both countries.
