The National Anti-Bullying Research and Resource Centre (ABC) is a research and resource facility at Dublin City University, Ireland. The Centre is normally referred to as the Anti-Bullying Centre or ABC and was founded in 1996 by Professor Mona O'Moore at the School of Education, Trinity College Dublin. The aims of the Centre are: * To conduct research into the multi-level and multi-factorial nature of workplace and school bullying. * The creation of greater awareness and understanding of bullying behaviour. * The promotion of ways and means by which bullying behaviour may be prevented or reduced. * To support the implementation of the National Action Plan on Bullying.〔(accessed online 6 June 2014. )〕 == Designation as National Centre == In January 2014, following the appointment of Prof. O'Moore as an adjunct Professor at Dublin City University, the Anti-Bullying Centre moved to Dublin City University where it is under the academic leadership of Dr. James O'Higgins Norman. In May 2014, the Centre was re-launched as the National Anti-Bullying Research and Resource Centre by the Minister for Education & Skills Ruairí Quinn TD and the Tánaiste (Deputy Prime Minister) Éamon Gilmore TD at a ceremony in Dublin City University. The Minister also announced on the same day that his Department would provide funding to the Anti-Bullying Centre.〔(accedded on 6 June 2014. )〕 In September 2014, the Centre hosted the 1st National Cyberbullying Conference at Dublin Castle. The conference was jointly hosted with Bully4U an Irish anti-bullying not for profit company.
