UK Safer Internet Centre
About our SID activities
For Safer Internet Day 2023, the UK Safer Internet Centre is organising celebrations and learning based around the theme ‘Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online’. we are celebrating by putting children and young people’s voices at the heart of the day and encouraging them to shape the online safety support that they receive.
That is why we are asking parents, carers, teachers, government, policymakers, and the wider online safety industry to take time to listen to children and young people and make positive change together.
This year we are hoping to answer the following questions:
- What issues really matter to children and young people?
- What changes do they want to see?
- How can we all work together to advocate for them moving forward?
To support this work we have created free educational resources for 3-7s, 7-11s, 11-14s and 14-18 year olds. There is also space for young people to share their thoughts on our video wall, get their voices heard in our youth charter, as well as support for parents and carers. There is also the opportunity for organisations, charities, schools and wider to sign up as official supporters of the day.
What we are doing to support the SID 2023 slogan of "Together for a better internet"…
For Safer Internet Day 2023, the UK Safer Internet Centre is organising celebrations and learning based around the theme ‘Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online’. we are celebrating by putting children and young people’s voices at the heart of the day and encouraging them to shape the online safety support that they receive. Our Youth Charter will put young people's voices at the heart of the campaign and allow us to help deliver their demands to industry, government, educators, parents and carers.
What we are doing to mark the 20th anniversary of Safer Internet Day…
We will be amplifying the success that Safer Internet Day has had over the 20 years, and showing how youth voice is vital to this.
About us
The UK Safer Internet Centre (UKSIC), established in 2011, is a leading global partnership helping to make the internet a great and safe place for everyone.
We provide support and services to children and young people, adults facing online harm, and professionals working with children.
A bridge between Government, industry, law enforcement and society, we are the engine of the online protection landscape in the UK, dealing with both prevention and response.
We are unique. Formed of three charities, Childnet, Internet Watch Foundation and SWGfL, we work together to identify threats and harms online and then create and deliver critical advice, resources, education and interventions that help keep children and young people, and adults, safe. We share our best practices across the UK and globally.
