What is hazing?
The definition of hazing according to Hazing
Prevention is
any action taken or any situation created intentionally that causes
embarrassment, harassment or ridicule and risks emotional and/or physical harm
to members of a group or team, whether new or not, regardless of the person’s
willingness to participate.
Unfortunately, this kind of rituals still exist, even
though the origins of hazing are traced back to Ancient Greece with Plato,
where some men injured and joked about people who got in their way.
Hazing can be seen in so many places, in colleges, at work,
at school, in sports teams, etc., where groups of people haze a person or more.
The only aim of the hazers is to feel powerful by humiliating the others in
front of a crowd that laugh at them. The worst thing about it is that even if
the victims report it, not many people try to stop it or get rid of it. In the
majority of the cases it includes physical injury, kidnapping or
imprisonment, intentionally placing at risk of mental or emotional harm the
person or group who are suffering, but if the hazers lose the control of what they’re
doing it could end up with the death of the victim.
That's why we have to continue acting against hazing.

About
Hi! My name is Mar, I'm 16 and I study at escola Tecnos in Terrassa. I am interested in social problems and the study of those because I would like to work in a world related to that in the near future. Also, being able to put a solution to the problems is something that makes you feel proud of your work and I think that little by little we can change what we don’t like about society, which would turn things into a better way.
I'm starting this blog to inform people about what hazing is and the consequences that has to be part of these rituals. Many people suffer this kind of humilliation and still don’t recieve as much help as they should; because hazing is a hidden but serious problem.
I hope you enjoy the blog!
