In the context of rapid digitalization, cyberbullying and manifestations of hate in the online space are becoming a serious challenge to the well-being, safety, and social development of young people. These risks are particularly heightened in societies undergoing rapid social change and instability.

Project objectives: to study the prevalence and forms of cyberbullying and cyberhate among young people; to analyze perceptions of digital threats and response strategies; to develop and pilot prevention and intervention tools; to strengthen young people’s digital literacy and resilience; and to support educational institutions in creating a safe digital environment.
