What is the campaign about?
The DSA for YOUth - Protecting minors by design campaign focuses on the DSA guidelines for the protection of minors (available in all EU languages), including the age verification (AV) and age-appropriate (AA) measures. It translates these rules into clear, practical, and jargon-free resources that you can easily use to help keep children and young people safe online.
Who is it for?
Whether you’re a parent seeking to provide a safe digital environment for your child, a teacher guiding classroom discussions, or a young person navigating platforms every day, this campaign is for you!
What to expect?
Over the coming weeks, we'll be bringing you a range of resources designed to help you learn more about the protection of minors under the DSA, including toolkits, family-friendly booklets, and video insights from young people.
