Swedish Safer Internet Centre

This past year, we’ve really experienced how we, with the help of digitalisation, have created new and exciting opportunities in our everyday lives. Workplaces, schools and other businesses have been forced to take big digital leaps forward. Lessons have been recorded and made available digitally so that students can take part in them afterwards, for example if they have been ill. Youth centres all over the country have been digitised and offered online dance classes and yoga, e-sports, chats and other digital activities for children and young people.
