How the internet influences children's career choices

Romanian Safer Internet Centre

Children have unprecedented access to information and resources that can shape their perceptions and aspirations for the future.

Analogue and digital go hand in hand

Danish Safer Internet Centre

In Denmark there is a strong focus on strengthening digital literacy among children and young people. A key player in this work is SSP (School, Social Services and Police), which works in collaboration with municipalities across the country to prevent crime and create a safe analogue and digital environment for young people. The Media Council for Children and Youth and the Centre for Digital Youth Care have often used the SSP network in Denmark in the context of projects that require direct contact with young people.
