BMC Public Health is calling for submissions to our Collection on Bullying prevention. Bullying is a form of physical, verbal or psychological abuse. Victims of bullying during childhood or adolescence experience adverse and long-term consequences for their health that may last into adulthood. There is a need for interventions and programs to prevent and reduce bullying in diverse settings and social contexts, including family, school and workplace. We invite submissions addressing school-based educational interventions, workplace awareness and knowledge improvement, promotion of family interventions for parental recognition and support, prevention of bullying in adolescents from disadvantaged households, anti-bullying legislations across social contexts, and community-based interventions targeting risk factors for effective bullying prevention.
