Dear Friend, Today is Safer Internet Day! Safer Internet Day, celebrated in approximately 180 countries and territories worldwide, is dedicated to raising global awareness of emerging and current concerns regarding online safety. At NCOSE, we strongly believe that children deserve safe environments where they can connect, learn, love, and thrive both off and online. Advances in technology have sparked positive, new opportunities for children to grow. However, they have also opened the door to serious threats and profound harms to children’s safety and wellbeing. Rather than improving with time, these problems are worsening at an exponential rate, with the Internet Watch Foundation reporting 2021 as the worst year on record for online child sexual exploitation. The scope and magnitude of the dangers may seem daunting. But change is possible if every one of us fights to secure a safer, more joyful future for our children. Will you join us?
