The awareness centre is responsible for national coordination (aligning the programmes and projects of ministries, NGOs and private partners). It focusses on awareness raising on safer internet issues, by a website, campaigns, events and working groups.

Meldknop.nl is a website for young people who face problems on the internet. Depending on the problem, the website leads them to the right helpline (there are helplines for several subjects). For topics related to sexual problems, meldknop refers to the website of the helpline: www.helpwanted.nl where kids, teens and parents/educators can find help or make contact. 

The "Meldpunt ter bestrijding van Kinderpornografie op Internet" (the hotline combating child pornography on the internet) is part of the Expertisebureau Online Kindermisbruik (EOKM), an independent private foundation officially opened by the Ministry of Security and Justice in June 1996. The Dutch hotline was created at the initiative of internet providers joined in the (now dissolved) NLIP, as well as individual internet users. Its main objective is to contribute to the reduction of the distribution of child abuse material via the internet.

The youth panel (Digiraad) consists of around 15 young people from 11-18 years old that advise the Safer Internet Centre (SIC) on activities: they make videos, they check awareness material, they advise SIC partners on content for young people, they give input in discussions and seminars of the SIC and/of partners, and provide advice to ministries.
