The Actieplan Veilig Online is a strategic communication from the Flemish Government designed to strengthen the digital safety and resilience of all citizens, with a particular focus on vulnerable populations such as children and youth. The plan outlines a comprehensive, cross-policy approach to combat online risks, including cyberbullying, privacy breaches, and exposure to harmful content.
The initiative emphasises collaboration across various departments and stakeholders to ensure that every citizen can participate in the digital society confidently and securely. Key measures include:
- Strict age verification (13+).
- Ban on addictive design features (infinite scroll, personalised algorithms, push notifications, daily rewards).
- Prohibition of personalised advertising to minors.
- Stronger actions against cyberbullying, grooming, deepnudes, and online abuse.
- Support for parents, teachers, and schools through education and tools.
Entities responsible for implementation: Flemish Government (Vlaamse Regering)
