Spiritual and moral resilience plays an important role in helping adolescents cope with the negative effects of bullying, especially in the context of regional communities. This resilience has been proven to make a significant contribution beyond existing psychosocial factors, acting as a protector of the mental health of adolescents who are affected by bullying symptoms in particular. The matter was shared in the Keynote Presentation One of ICAPP 2025, which took place on 16th June afternoon at the Tarbiah Hall, KUPU SB.

The presentation titled Integrating Spiritual Dimensions and Psychosocial Factors in Building Adolescent Resilience Against Bullying: Evidence from Indonesia and Implications for ASEAN Mental Health Policy was delivered by Associate Professor Dr. Ipah Saripah, Head of the Guidance and Counseling Study Program, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia, Republic of Indonesia.
