World Anti-Bullying Forum

World Anti-Bullying Forum 2023

October 25-27, 2023,   in  North Carolina!

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has been selected to host the 2023 World Anti-Bullying Forum. The event is to be held October 25-27, 2023, and will be led by Dorothy Espelage, the William C. Friday Distinguished Professor of Education at the UNC School of Education and a leading expert on bullying and youth well-being.

Professor Espelage and her team have a unique capacity of organizing a Forum where dialogue is bringing the bullying prevention field forward, as well as bridging the research/practice gap.

“As we begin to recover from several years of isolation as result of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is ever so important to create safe spaces in our schools, families, and communities for youth to be situated in environments that are protective, supportive, equitable and free of bullying. An important avenue for building resiliency in students is through the gathering of researchers, practitioners, school administrators, youth, and community members from across the globe at the 2023 WABF to disseminate and learn from one another on prevention and intervention successes, innovation, and future directions.”

“The work that Professor Dorothy Espelage has been doing there for many years on bullying and related topics is internationally significant and as such the next WABF2023 will certainly be shaped by her experience and insights, providing an amazing framework in which participants can consider the latest research and initiatives to tackle bullying in all forms.”
