T2 - World Anti-Bullying Forum 2021 N2 - Bullying research has been conducted worldwide for decades, with ever-increasing frequency and intensity. Nevertheless, some areas of bullying research have not been very well studied so far. One of these areas is the role of teachers in preventing and reducing bullying, including, for example, their intervention strategies and effectiveness in tackling bullying, and supportive or hindering teacher competencies. Recently, studies in this area seem to be increasing. A special issue in the European Journal of Developmental Psychology and a Current Research Topic in Frontiers of Psychology show growing research interest in the role of teachers in student bullying. It seems that we are at the beginning of increasing research interest, which provides us with the opportunity to identify research priorities and to advance appropriate networking. This could facilitate cooperation and connection between researchers and studies, which would be beneficial for the growth of knowledge and enable more rapid findings relevant to practice. We, the founders of the newly established and currently growing European Young Researchers Network on Teachers' Role in School Bullying, would like to talk about connecting researchers and research. Purpose The workshop is aimed at researchers who study teachers in the bullying context as well as practitioners who identified research needs. Central questions of the workshop will be: Which research questions need to be addressed to understand the role of teachers in bullying better? What helps us or what hinders us to exchange and cooperate? How can we create networks that are beneficial and accessible for everyone who wants to participate? Which research projects would be suitable for comparative research or replication in another country? The workshop aims to develop creative ideas that can be implemented in the newly established network or other cooperation opportunities to advance research on the role of the teacher.
