Beatbullying's 'The Big March 2012' is the world's first virtual, global march for children's right to be safe.
The Big March 2012 will see private sector companies, brands, media outlets, charities and celebrities join hundreds of thousands of young people from around the world to launch the world’s first global virtual march for children’s rights.
The Big March 2011 saw over a million parents, teachers, young people, celebrities and MPs show their support for the UK campaign. Marching across 100 UK corporate and charity websites to deliver an anti-bullying petition to a virtual 10 Downing Street, while a real deputation delivered a physical version of the petition into the hands of Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg.
For the 2012 march, Beatbullying is calling for partners across the globe to support
The online Big March 2012 by registering and creating a little avatar of themselves or organisation. These avatars and messages created will then march across partner websites with celebrities and other well known public figures.
The online march will take place on March 1 2012 at 8am.
