School violence is a problem that affects well-being and coexistence in educational institutions. A literature review was conducted to analyze the evidence on the effectiveness of comprehensive school coexistence plans developed in conjunction with partners in violence prevention. Thirty studies published between 2018 and 2025 were included. The findings demonstrate that comprehensive, preventive, and intersectoral approaches improve the school climate and reduce violent behavior, proving relevant in both urban and rural contexts.
