As part of the transformation of higher education practices in the digital age, inspired by advanced EU methodologies, the RE-DIRECTION project Dnipro University of Тechnology team hosted a scientific and methodological forum, «Scientific, theoretical and applied aspects of preventing cyberbullying in distance learning» on December 11, 2024.

The event brought together educators from higher and secondary education, legal practitioners, and psychologists to address a pressing issue — how to create a safe learning environment in digitalization.

Key topics discussed:
- Differences between bullying and cyberbullying;
- Methods to prevent and detect cyberbullying;
- Algorithms for protecting participants in the educational process;
- Mechanisms to counteract conflicts in the educational environment.

Participants focused on developing practical solutions to create safe and comfortable conditions for the learning process.

In today’s world of digital technologies, the issue of cyberbullying is becoming increasingly relevant. The outcomes of events like this will determine how quickly we can adopt new approaches to education, making it more inclusive, secure, and innovative.

These initiatives represent a fundamental step towards positive change — education that can meet the challenges of our time.
