The internet offers great opportunities but also real risk, especially for children. Explore practical ways to keep children safe online
About this Event

What does a safe and welcoming online world look like? And how can we protect people, especially children, young people, and vulnerable communities, while also respecting privacy, freedom, and democracy?

In this session, we will explore practical ways to keep people safe online. We will talk about how parents can better understand and support their children in the digital world. We will also look at how artificial intelligence (AI) could help prevent online harm and make the internet a safer place for everyone. We will share how our research institute is contributing to this goal, developing new tools, insights, and technologies to protect individuals and support safer, more inclusive online environments.
