Bullying causes issues like school failure, lack of emotional ties with peers, loneliness and sadness. Another issue is cyberbullying, which happens online and feels like there is no escape: you are attacked everywhere, even in your own home.

Role – playing and composition for empathy and co-creation
Role-playing with musical instruments is a mixed way of expressing around a common problem, allowing individuals to communicate and process experiences and feelings without using words. It also facilitates putting oneself in someone else’s place. Composing music in groups is a way of community creation and involves playing an instrument and/or singing. It also implies collaboration, teamwork, and complementarity, helping to increase confidence and equally value each person’s input. In general, any cooperative musical activity will help to gain confidence and improve cohesion between participants.
