Cabinet launches new Strategy for Children’s Rights Online
The Strategy for Children’s Rights Online includes stricter EU regulation, more parental support, and efforts to strengthen children’s digital resilience and safety.
Children’s Rights Online
Children need to grow up in a safe environment, including the digital world. This world can be educational, making it easier to learn languages and foster friendships. However, there are risks such as harmful content, advertising profiling, and cyberbullying. To address this, the government collaborates with various partners to protect young people from these online risks. The aim is not to exclude young people from the digital world but to teach them to navigate it conscientiously.
