How connection and belonging shapes children and young people’s vulnerability online
eSafety presentations highlight online safety trends and issues for children and young people. This eSafety session aims to empower you with strategies to respond to emerging online risks and harms and support children and young people and their families to stay safer online.
Connection, identity, and belonging are powerful drivers for young people online, but they can also increase vulnerability.
This webinar explores:
· the role of offline experiences in shaping vulnerability online
· why some young people are more at risk online
· strategies to support safer online engagement
