During adolescence, teens start having their first contact with relationships and begin to establish strong bonds with other peers. It is characterized by a period of self-discovery and is fundamental for personality construction. Therefore, it is important to intervene in order to give tools to teenagers for them to have a harmonious development and prevent violent behaviors as they stabilish bonds. The research question of this work - what are the most common characteristics of European intervention programs on violence for adolescents? - sustains the objective: synthesize the findings of the role of a violence intervention in the development of behavioral and lives of adolescents. To carry out this objective, we intend to acquire a better notion of European intervention programs in order to contribute to the knowledge of what is more efficient to prevent and intervene in such problems through a systematic review, extracting educational theory, age-group, faclitators perfil, sessions and efficacy. Overall, this kind of intervention is applied in a school context, being based on Emotional Intelligence, Psychoeducation, Positive Psychology and/or Cognitive Behavior Psychology, by teachers or investigators themselves.
