The focus was on education in New Zealand for IDAHO 2012 with the launch of a nationwide anti-bullying program.
Activities included awareness-raising about IDAHO and New Zealand’s Pink Shirt Day – a general anti-bullying campaign – through social media; the targeting of schools to let them know about IDAHO, educating them about homophobic and transphobic bullying and how schools can create safer spaces; and distributing “It’s OK To Be Who You Are” posters to schools throughout the country.
