Abstract
This paper examines the phenomenon of digital aggression as a form of communicative violence and explores possible strategies for its prevention within educational contexts. The study, conducted at Batumi Shota Rustaveli State University among 60 undergraduate students aged 18–25, reveals that 55% of respondents have experienced online aggression, while 28% reported emotional stress. The results emphasize the necessity of integrating digital ethics and responsible communication training into university curricula. Educational, psychological, and institutional mechanisms are identified as key factors in promoting awareness and resilience against online aggression.
