Description:... This publication reviews the highlights of "Local partnerships for preventing and combating violence in schools" conference 2-4 December 2002, Strasbourg (France). The conference discarded repression altogether as a means of curbing violence in schools. Instead, discussion focused on mediation, intercultural dialogue, early warning systems, prevention programmes at primary school level, and above all, on respect for the human rights of both the victim and the defender.
