Summary/Abstract: Violence in schools is now reaching very worrying proportions in Gabon. Since schools are places of multiracial diversity, the problem is of considerable practical interest. In order to deal with it, the government, with the support of numerous institutions including UNICEF, is working to redefine new targeted strategies to curb the phenomenon, if not to eradicate it systematically. The strengthening of the security auxiliary service is one of the main responses to this concern. However, in practice, this measure is not very effective in the face of verbal violence. The present study is part of a pedagogical approach consisting of preventing verbal violence between learners in the classroom. The pedagogical translation of La niña que curó el racismo by Inongo Vi-Makomè responds to this concern.
