BUENOS AIRES, BRASÍLIA, GENEVA — OCTOBER 25, 2026 — WORLD ORGANIZATION BULLYING SIN FRONTERAS
The World Organization Bullying Sin Fronteras congratulates Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on his victory in Brazil’s presidential election and wishes him success as he assumes the responsibility of leading Latin America’s most populous country for a fourth, non-consecutive presidential term.
The election took place amid intense political polarization and concluded with Lula’s comeback victory over his opponent, Flávio Bolsonaro. The result underscores the importance of citizen participation and democratic institutions in shaping Brazil’s future.
AN AGENDA TO PROTECT CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE
For the World Organization Bullying Sin Fronteras, every change of government also represents an opportunity to strengthen public policies aimed at protecting children and adolescents.
Bullying, cyberbullying, peer violence, psychological distress and risks associated with drug use require sustained attention, institutional cooperation and awareness campaigns that reach families, schools and communities.
Prevention cannot depend solely on responses after a tragedy has occurred. It requires education, early identification of warning signs, professional support, protection for victims and effective tools to address violence in digital environments as well.
BRAZIL: A REGIONAL RESPONSIBILITY
Given its population, economic scale and international influence, Brazil occupies a central position in Latin America. Government decisions can help advance regional initiatives to protect children and adolescents, promote peaceful coexistence and prevent different forms of violence.
In this context, BSF believes that protecting young people should remain a permanent item on the public agenda, supported by concrete objectives, adequate resources and meaningful evaluation of results.
AN INSTITUTIONAL MESSAGE
The World Organization Bullying Sin Fronteras congratulates Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on his electoral victory and expresses its hope that his new term will contribute to the well-being of the Brazilian people, strengthen democratic coexistence and improve protection for the most vulnerable.
Children and young people need policies that protect them every day, beyond political differences.
