Keeping Children Youth Safe Online

Keeping Children Youth Safe Online
  • The internet provides access to opportunities and
    information that would otherwise remain out of
    childrens reach.
  • It is a powerful education resource that helps
    children learn, providing a platform to amplify
    their voices to be part of a global discussion on
    issues that affect them.
  • However, WV recognizes that children need to have
    the knowledge and skills to safely engage online
    hence, the design of KCSO project.

  • KCSO is a comprehensive suite of training
    resources for children, parents and teachers.
  • It provides the knowledge and skills
  • that enable children to protect
  • Themselves from racist, violent, sexual
  • or other inappropriate content.
  • Through interactive, child friendly, age
    appropriate materials children youth can
    identify the risks and benefits of digital
    technology, understanding what is appropriate and
    inappropriate behaviour online and learn what
    steps they can take to respond and report a
    situation that makes them uncomfortable.

The project
  • Piloted in Armenia and Lebanon 2009
  • Expanded to B H, Georgia (including Abkhazia
    program) and JWG and soon in Albania.
  • All tools were contextualized and translated in
    country appropriate languages. (now available in
    7 languages)
  • ToTs were conducted to train trainers as well as
    children.
  • On a national level - we partner with local org.
    and gvts including the ministries of education
    and social affairs.
  • Enhancing the CP systems approach we
    collaborate with existing CP Hotlines and
    Helplines to build a safer internet reporting
    mechanism.
  • At an EU level we partner with the EU Insafe
    network and other EU safer internet centres to
    build on best safer internet practises and tools

ART Network KCSO
  • KCSO is not a stand alone CP initiative it has
    integrated with existing projects - ART Network,
    Sponsorship 2.0, communications and more.
  • Our goal is to empower youth already trained on
    the KCSO project to work along side and train
    youth involved in the ART project.
  • We encourage you to
  • contact the KCSO project
  • managers in your country to
  • make this happen.
