On September 17-18, 2019, the 13th International Conference „Keeping Children and Young People safe online” took place in Warsaw. Our Foundation was represented by Natalia Mirosz. On the first day of the conference there was a debate on how parents can help their children use new technologies in a safe and constructive way. The next panel was devoted to parenthood and the role of education in the age of digital revolution. How to deal with new technologies at school was also discussed. The summary of the first day was the screening of the film “Teen Confessions” (documentary, Israel, 2018).
During the next day, two issues were developed: cyberbullying and sexting. We took part in the session: “Cyberbullying, online aggression, online hate speech”. We met many inspiring people, representatives of many organizations and initiators of various events. The day ended with a joint open debate covering topics discussed during the conference.
To sum up – these were two days full of new experiences and learning, we will definitely use the acquired knowledge during the workshops we run.
