ai generated text

According to two reports from the "Health Behaviour in School-aged Children" study published by WHO/Europe on March 27, cyberbullying among school children in Europe, Central Asia, and North America has increased since 2018. The studies indicate that approximately 16% of children aged 11 to 15 were cyberbullied in 2022. This number includes around 15% of boys and 16% of girls. Additionally, the pandemic has influenced adolescent behavior towards each other, with some reporting being bullied at school at least twice a month (11%). These reports serve as a "wake-up call" according to WHO Regional Director for Europe, Hans Kluge.
