Summary:

"This book explores the wide range of ways that educators can understand and promote wellbeing and violence prevention initiatives in schools and communities. Drawing together the two topics of wellbeing and violence prevention and encouraging dialogue between them, the authors address a broad range of contemporary issues including culture, gender and youth voice. Translating theory into practice with a strong evidence-based application, each chapter presents recent research on applications, trends and issues in the field, as well as practical ideas for wellbeing and violence prevention measures"-- Provided by publisher.
