Cyber Safe Ireland urges next Government to take cyberbullying seriously

The World Health Organisation report listed Irish 13 and 15-year-olds in the top 10 for both problematic social media use and cyberbullying experiences.

Provisions around tackling cyberbullying should form part of the next Programme for Government.

Cyber Safe Ireland is urging Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and the Green Party to take the issue seriously after an international study found Irish teens witness high amounts online.
