A classroom kit that could curb bullying and boost empathy — put to the test
NCT ID NCT07734324
First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether the Earth of Joy educational kit can improve well-being and empathy in schoolchildren aged 7 to 11. Teachers use the kit in class, and researchers measure changes in students' emotional health and bullying behaviors. The goal is to see if a simple, ready-to-use program can make schools kinder and more supportive places.
What this could mean

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could give schools a simple, low-cost tool to improve children's emotional health and reduce bullying.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 52 children, so results may not apply broadly. The kit's effects may be modest or short-lived.
