Be the change for Safer Internet Day 2017

06 Feb 2017 UK SIC

It’s Safer Internet Day tomorrow and we are so excited about the huge range of activities that will be taking place up and down the country.

This Safer Internet Day we want to empower children to have a positive time online and inspire everyone to ‘Be the change’ and use the positive power of image to help create a better internet. 

To do this we invite all of you to join with us to be the change!

You can do this by:

What we will be doing to mark the day

The UK Safer Internet Centre will be holding youth events across the country to showcase how we can all ‘be the change’ and unite to help create a better internet.

The national youth event in London will be attended by Ministers and over 100 key policymakers where they will hear directly from young people about how images and videos play a key role in their lives and the influence of this on their self-esteem, beliefs and behaviours.

The event will also see the launch of the UK Safer Internet Centre’s youth research that reveals how important images and videos are to young people’s digital lives, demonstrating the positive role this plays as well as the risks and pressures they may face as a result.

There will be live tweeting from the event from our Twitter account @UK_SIC so make sure to follow us!

There will also be events across the UK with Ministerial and youth involvement showcasing images created as part of our youth photo campaign.
