Join IOB and CyberSafeKids for this event on empowering children to be safer online. CyberSafeKids is an Irish charity, which has been empowering children, parents, schools and businesses to navigate the online world in a safer and more responsible way since 2015.

This session is aimed at those with, or working with children from 8-13 years old and offers a general overview to raise awareness of the main factors to consider around social media, gaming and the online world.

The aim is not to scare, but rather to raise awareness of what children are doing online and offer practical advice and resources to help participants deepen their knowledge. Areas of focus are popular apps & protecting privacy, areas of risk, digital wellbeing & critical thinking and useful resources.

This event will be of interest to parents or guardians of pre-teen children, adults interested in a general overview of online safety, youth workers, foster carers etc.
