The most famous programmes are reviewed, including the Olweus programme in Norway, KiVa in Finland, ViSC in Austria, NoTrap! In Italy, Friendly Schools in Australia and Steps to Respect in the USA. In addition, this book addresses the prevention of ijime in Japan and interventions against cyberbullying. The good news is that bullying can be prevented!
