Sažetak

Introduction: The problem of peer violence is increasingly discussed. It is noticeable that it is not sufficiently researched and
there is no sufficient information about its prevalence, forms, prevention methods, repression and coping with the problem and its consequences. It seems that it gets discussed more intensively only in case of a traumatic incident whose consequences cannot be denied and if they make a large impact on the entire society. To show the prevalence and manifestation of peer violence as well as problems in the prevention and addressing consequences of peer violence.
Methods: Data are collected from several studies on peer violence conducted in Bosnia and Herzegovina and worldwide.
Results: Collected data indicate that the peer violence ranges from 15% to 50% depending on the development of the country
where research is conducted.
Conclusions: It is necessary to identify peer violence on time and respond in a timely manner. Any claim of a child needs to be
taken seriously, because timely response prevents the child who experienced some form of violence to revenge or become violent. It is important to start raising awareness among children from their early age and train them on techniques of non-violent communication, forms of violence, the ways of expressing violence and its effects on victims and observers of violence and why it is important to talk about it. They need to know where to report violence and what the duties of relevant institutions are. In addition to children, it is important to raise awareness among parents, teachers, politicians as well as mental health professionals. The entire society needs to be involved in the prevention of peer violence.
