DCU Anti-Bullying Centre

DCU Anti-Bullying Centre (ABC) is a leading international research centre advancing knowledge, policy, and practice in the fields of bullying, cyberbullying, and online safety.

The Centre addresses one of the most pressing challenges facing children, young people and communities today: how to create safe, inclusive, and supportive environments across education, workplaces and digital spaces.

Led by Professor James O’Higgins-Norman, the UNESCO Chair on Bullying and Cyberbullying, ABC is a global leader in shaping research, policy, and practice. Researchers work in close partnership with policymakers, schools, industry, and international organisations to develop systemic, evidence-based responses to take on bullying in all its forms.

If you are committed to advancing safety and inclusion in schools and workplaces, we can work with you to explore how your support can help stop bullying.
