Czech Republic - Policy monitor country profile

The Better Internet for Kids (BIK) Policy monitor is a tool used to compare and exchange knowledge on policy making and implementation in EU Member States, Iceland and Norway on the pillars and recommendations of the European Strategy for a Better Internet for Children (BIK+ strategy). The 2025 edition of the BIK Policy Monitor report examines the implementation of the BIK+ strategy in 29 European countries, including all EU Member States, Iceland, and Norway.

Here, we take an in-depth look at the latest monitoring information for the Czech Republic.

According to the State of the Digital Decade 2024 Czechia report, 69.1% of the population has at least a basic level of digital skills, well above the EU average (55.6%). Czech students benefit from the introduction of digital subjects in primary and secondary school curricula and the availability of digital tools in schools.

BIK policies

Policy design asks whether evidence and research support BIK-related policies and whether systems are in place for monitoring and evaluating those policies.

Policy frameworks

Policy frameworks describe the overarching approach for a better internet and establish the underlying goals, principles and guidelines that shape individual policies within this area. 

In the Czech Republic:

  • This topic is an important and emerging policy priority, with children’s online protection, digital empowerment, and digital participation partially covered in national/regional laws, regulations and policies.
  • There are separate, dedicated policies which address the topic of children and the digital environment (protection, empowerment, and participation).
  • The BIK+ strategy is an important influence on policy development on children and the digital environment, which informs and guides national policies even if they do not directly refer to BIK+.
  • Children's rights in relation to the digital environment are an important and emerging policy priority, with specific policies in development on this topic.

Policy design

Policy design asks whether evidence and research support BIK-related policies and whether systems are in place for monitoring and evaluating those policies.

  • Quantitative data on some aspects of children’s digital activity is collected regularly as part of broader surveys.
  • Surveys of children’s experiences of risks, harms and digital well-being are undertaken on an ad-hoc and irregular basis.
  • Information is regularly gathered to inform policies on children and the digital environment. However, this relies primarily on third-party sources, and there are limited opportunities to commission new data on children’s digital activity.
  • Regarding research funding, there are occasional special initiatives to gather evidence about children and the digital environment.
  • Monitoring and evaluation of national policies on this topic is ad hoc, infrequent and not systematic.

Policy governance

Policy governance examines how policies are coordinated at the governmental level, whether other implementation bodies are involved in their delivery, and whether structured mechanisms are available to guide their implementation. 

  • Policy development sits across a range of ministries, and no lead is specifically assigned responsibility for developing government policies, guidelines, and programmes related to children and the digital environment.
  • Coordination happens more informally across the different departments and entities contributing to government policies, guidelines, and programmes regarding children and the digital environment.
  • Several ministries and agencies undertake supportive measures and activities; however, there is no cross-governmental action plan on children and the digital environment.

Stakeholder involvement

Stakeholder involvement enquires about how different stakeholders can participate in the policy development process. Children’s involvement in policy-making is one such key issue. Additionally, international knowledge exchange about children's digital participation is also relevant to this topic.

  • Various ad hoc multistakeholder groups exist across different branches of government, in which stakeholders may contribute to policy deliberation and development.
  • Members of the public are consulted on occasion in the course of the development of new policies. However, this is not always the case.
  • Children are listened to directly in the policy development process (e.g., through hearings, consultations, specific surveys) but are not formally involved in decision-making.
  • There are occasional opportunities for policymakers to participate in international knowledge exchange on digital policies for children.

Pillar 2 – digital empowerment

Digital empowerment incorporates actions so that all children, including those in vulnerable situations, acquire the necessary skills and competences to make sound choices and express themselves in the online environment safely and responsibly.

Supports for online safety education

  • A curriculum reform for primary and secondary education was introduced in 2021, with new classes focusing on digital skills development and ICT. This comprehensive plan is backed by various measures, including RRF funding for purchasing digital equipment and teaching aids for schools, with a particular focus on supporting disadvantaged students to ensure an inclusive digital transition. Stakeholders and scientists also give courses to introduce AI in schools, focusing on preventing its misuse. The topic of healthy and secure use of technologies and internet is emphasised in the revised curriculum. Source: State of the Digital Decade 2024 Czechia.
  • Innovations in education in the context of digitalisation are implemented through the National Recovery Plan, which is implemented by the MEYS and the National Pedagogical Institute of the Czech Republic. It provides support and learning opportunities for schools and their teachers regarding the development of digital competences and the implementation of the new concept of informatics.
  • The National Recovery Plan includes activities to train teachers in this area. The National Pedagogical Institute of the Czech Republic has different projects, such as teacher training, webinars for educators, platforms for exchanging experiences between schools, and consultancy activities. The Institute also creates educational podcasts called KYBcastA current project, AIDIG, provides training and other support for schools regarding cybersecurity, online prevention and digital well-being among other topics.
  • The Czech Digital Skills and Jobs Coalition ́s (Digikoalice) project has an online catalogue that provides children with a wide range of educational activities. Currently, more than 140 activities and courses created by different entities and organisations are easily accessible to children, their parents, and their teachers.
  • In 2022, Czechia’s police launched an educational prevention initiative called “Your Journey Online.’” The first part focuses on educating children and young individuals on how to present themselves on social media and underlines the importance of securing their devices and personal accounts. The second part of the programme concentrates on navigating online information, stressing the need for fact-checking, especially amid widespread misinformation, and being aware of common cyber fraud tactics. Source: State of the Digital Decade 2024 Czechia.
  • The ‘First Mobile’ guide is for parents who are about to get their children their first smartphone. It was prepared by the Safer Internet Centre in cooperation with the Police of the Czech Republic, the O2 Foundation, and mobile operators Vodafone and T-Mobile. The guide contains a number of recommendations on how to set up a smartphone correctly and introduces the most common risks children can face when using it.
  • The Ministry of the Interior, together with Palacký University in Olomouc, has produced a methodological guide on the prevention of risky behaviour among children and youths online created for local authorities and police as well as for other target groups in the school environment (‘Cyber Academy for municipal staff, municipal police and other target groups in the school environment’).

Digital literacy skills to empower young people

  • In 2022, the Ministry of Industry and Trade launched the Mobile Technology Classroom project, aiming to spark students’ interests in new technologies and technical areas. A converted truck goes around the country and serves as a mobile classroom where eighth and ninth graders can learn about new technologies, gaining practical knowledge, skills and competencies. Students can try 3D printing, augmented and virtual reality ,and receive career counselling. Source: State of the Digital Decade 2024 Czechia.
  • The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports cooperates with National Cyber and Information Security Agency on educational projects and activities for young people in related fields.

Pillar 3 – active participation, respecting children’s rights

Active participation, respecting children’s rights, refers to actions which give children and young people a say in the digital environment, with more child-led activities to foster innovative and creative safe digital experiences.

Active participation

  • In the Committee for Digital Education under the Government Council for Information Society under the Digital Czechia Strategy, the Czech Children and Youth Parliament represent the voices of children. They are encouraged to contribute to the debate and discuss the policies in the field of digital education.
