The study focuses on the effectiveness of these interventions in various settings, highlighting the need for adaptive strategies that respond to the dynamic digital landscape. By offering a comprehensive overview of the current state of cyberbullying and the efficacy of technology based solutions, this analysis provides valuable insights for stakeholders, including educators, policymakers, and technology developers, aiming to enhance digital wellbeing and create safer online environments. The findings underscore the importance of leveraging technology not only as a medium of communication but also as a strategic tool to combat the negative impacts of cyberbullying, thus promoting a more inclusive and respectful digital world.
