This research adopts a tripartite methodology, by combining qualitative, quantitative, and case study approaches, to examine the underexplored issue of cyberviolence against Moroccan female academics. With three key research questions, the study explores the prevalence, characteristics, effects on mental well-being and professional fulfillment, and the coping strategies employed by the victims to counteract cyberviolence. The study concludes by stressing the urgency of targeted and efficient interventions and evidence-based policies to address the gendered nature of online harassment. In spite of its limitations, the research lays the ground for further studies and collaboration to secure safer online environments for female academics in Morocco
