The Office of the Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General on Violence against Children organised a global expert meeting on bullying and cyber-bullying, held on 9-10 May at the UNICEF-Innocenti Research Center, Florence. Sonia Livingstone presented the Global Kids Online project at the meeting, drawing on findings from EU Kids Online and Kids Online Brazil. Among other things, these show how cyberbullying represents a growing proportion of bullying overall, as well as the value of adopting a cross-country comparative approach.
