This guide sets out good practices by which professionals can respond constructively to the range of online risks of harm encountered by children in Europe. Its aim is to increase awareness of the risks and encourage the use of available tools and services to mitigate and remedy the resulting harms.
Responding to policy and public concern regarding current and emerging online risks of harm to children in Europe, and grounded in research and practitioner expertise, the guide examines how online risks are classified, and the steps that children, caregivers, educators and Safer Internet Centres (SICs) can take to mitigate the resulting harms. This is illustrated by real-life case studies provided by SICs on contacts they have received and positive support they offered.
