IACAPAP Open House Webinar | Towards a detection of exposure to bullying and other forms of maltreatment: A critical public health responsibility

Topic: Towards a detection of exposure to bullying and other forms of maltreatment: A critical public health responsibility

This webinar will present an overview of the book Bullying, Impact on Health and Beyond, published by Oxford University Press last year. It aims to enhance understanding of the wide-ranging health risks linked to bullying - a complex psychosocial stressor that can manifest across the lifespan and transcend social, cultural, and geographic boundaries.

The session will examine bullying as a form of victimization and promote the concept of a continuum of maltreatment. It will highlight its associations with morbidity, psychosocial risk factors, and mortality, while also reviewing clinical strategies for prevention, early detection, intervention, and treatment.

Additionally, the webinar will emphasize the significance of poly-victimization and revictimization, focusing on the occurrence of bullying and related forms of maltreatment in diverse settings, including schools, homes, neighborhoods, workplaces, cyberspace, prisons, sports environments, dating relationships, higher education institutions, military training, and instances of witnessing others being victimized.
