MTV Latin America and UNICEF unite efforts to present a reality which many adolescents and young people live in Latin America

"MTV news forum: Bullying, the terror in school"

Buenos Aires/Mexico D.F., 26 June 2007 – MTV Latin America announced the premiere of the special "MTV News Forum: Bullying, the Terror in School" (Bully: el Terror escolar), sponsored by UNICEF. The special program will be anchored by Jazz and Nicolas, MTV News speakers in Mexico and Argentina, respectively.

This forum creates a space through which some of the protagonists of violence in school –victims or aggressors- have the possibility to peacefully present their points of view, look for causes of the problem and propose solutions. In the case of Argentina, the forum unites a group of students from high schools Hipólito Vieytes and Ingeniero Huergo, among others, in order to dialogue about the different opinions of each party in the traditional conflict of rivalry between two colleges, further including examples of other similar cases.
