Project description
Digital dangers for children
Digitisation poses many dangers for children and young people, but there is a lack of scientific data on impacts and contexts of the digital activity of children and adolescents, and we still lack solid knowledge of how to avoid it. The EU-funded ySKILLS project will conduct academic longitudinal research in six European countries on risks and opportunities from the information and communication technologies (ICT) uses for children and adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17. The goal is to understand which skills they must obtain to knowingly and critically use ICT for their well-being, education, social life and how they can build resistance against negative impacts. The project will enable new strategies and policy recommendations.
