Child safety and well-being were in the spotlight last month when the Moore Center’s Elizabeth Letourneau and Aengus Ó Dochartaigh attended Growing Up in the Digital Age, a full-day summit at the Google Safety Engineering Center in Dublin, Ireland. The event touched on the steps big tech platforms are taking to support child safety and the challenges they face in a constantly-evolving online environment.     Learn more about navigating online child safety for your organization using Google’s child safety toolkit: https://lnkd.in/ej_mv4Kz John Buckley #GSEC #GrowingUpInTheDigitalAgeSummit #OnlineChildSafety #ChildSafety #CSAPrevention

Today is the start of summer break across the country. Finding, discovering, researching and registering for summer camp is a time-consuming and massively frustrating task for parents. As a parent, I asked myself these questions (and about 20 more): 1) What is even available to me within a 15-20 minute drive?  2) What camps are available for both my kids given that they have a four year age difference? (I would prefer one drop off and pickup) 3) Why is it so hard to see the dates, times, and basic details of camps? 4) When does registration open? 5) Why can’t I see if a camp is sold out? 6) Why can't I register multiple kids at the same time?  7) Why am I printing out forms and sending them in the mail with a check?  8) How do I join a waitlist?  9) How do I take my kid off a waitlist?  10) Where can I review what I purchased? We set out to make this easier with Enrichment.kids by building a marketplace paired with a user-friendly registration SaaS tool which we launched in January. Check it out! https://enrichment.kids/

🌐 New Insights on Kids’ Online Safety 🚨 New survey results from FOSI finds young people feel it’s up to them to figure out how to stay safe online.

Are we giving our kids enough support in an increasingly digital world? And whose responsibility is this? 🤔 Governments? Tech? Parents? Kids? Schools? https://lnkd.in/eh5c_jr7 #OnlineSafety #DigitalParenting #FOSI #EmpoweringYouth
