European Crime Prevention Network (EUCPN)

About our SID activities

The EUCPN Thematic Paper no. 11 - Cyber Safety is written by the EUCPN Secretariat following the topic of the Estonian Presidency of the Network. It gives a theoretical insight into what Cyber Safety is. We take interest in what the exact object is of cybercrime and have a deeper look into two European policy priorities, namely cyber-attacks and payment fraud. The goal of this paper is to add to the digital awareness of local policy makers and practitioners on a theoretical level - read the paper on the EUCPN website.
 
In 2018, EUCPN published a toolbox with legislative measures, existing policies and best practices on this topic, which can be used by practitioners.
 
In 2017, the European Crime Prevention Award (ECPA) had Cyber Safety as its theme. The ECPA is a contest that rewards the best European crime prevention project. All good practices from the winners and participants of the ECPA 2017 can be found on the EUCPN website.

What we are doing to create a better internet…

The European Crime Prevention Network (EUCPN) will promote the Safer Internet Day (SID) campaign through its website and social media.
