By applying established theoretical frameworks such as the CASEL model, Bronfenbrenners ecological systems theory and Banduras social learning theory, SEL is established as a culturally adaptable approach to combat bullying in under- resourced settings. By drawing on case studies from developing and under- developed countries such as India, Zimbabwe, and Ghana, efficacy of simple interventions are highlighted. Techniques such as circle time, storytelling, peer mentoring, and theatre based interventions are proposed as tools to boost empathy, emotional regulation and prosocial behavior in accordance with SEL. Evidence based effectiveness of SEL in resource constrained environments allows for it to be proposed as a simple but efficient method ready to be integrated into programs as a cost effective approach against bullying. 2026 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
