Safer Internet Day 2022
Every year in February, Safer Internet Day is celebrated by schools and organisations around the world. Safer Internet Day is a global campaign to promote the safe and responsible use of technology, which calls on young people, parents, carers, teachers, social workers, law enforcement, companies, policymakers, and wider, to join together in helping to create a better internet.
The global theme for 2022 is ‘All fun and games? Exploring respect and relationships online’ This year's focus in the UK is how young people explore and express their identity online. The UK Safer Internet Centre has launched a series of short films called 'How can parents talk to children about their online lives?' To watch the films click here.
