SRSG on violence against children: Annual report 2016, para. 79
- Paragraph text
- Young people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender are particularly vulnerable to bullying and cyberbullying. As noted in a report of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), although relatively few countries have collected data on homophobic bullying, evidence from all regions of the world suggests that the scale of the problem is significant, with over half of all lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender students in a wide range of countries reporting such incidents. Drawing on important research, the report confirms the need for prevention efforts that address both bullying and cyberbullying of lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender young people.
