Today and tomorrow, the Insafe and INHOPE networks are meeting in Jurmala, Latvia, to explore areas of common ground and opportunities for closer working between helplines, hotlines, and awareness centres in a two-day joint training meeting. It is also an opportunity to discuss a range of online safety issues, including the latest developments in AI and AI companions/chatbots, deepnudes, gamification in educational work, as well as the latest updates about the Digital Services Act (DSA) and trusted flaggers.
Day 1
Activities will kick off with some optional morning sessions focusing on gamification in education and helpline activities.
Then, the training meeting will officially open with a session delving into the different types of research being carried out on online safety issues - for example, digital harms, understanding human behaviour, new and emerging risks and trends, analysis of platform design, cyberbullying, impact on child rights, technical solutions, and more. The following open space sessions will provide more in-depth discussion on specific issues with input from Safer Internet Centres and experts who will share experiences, expertise, research, and upcoming initiatives, and with allocated time for discussion and feedback.
Day 2
Day 2 will open with a “state of the nation” for AI and feature discussions and exchanges on various AI-related topics, including the use of AI in police CSAM (child sexual abuse material) investigative work, AI companions and chatbots, the latest challenges and dangers of AI for young people, and deepnudes.
Then, a keynote session will provide an overview of the Com network, followed by breakout sessions designed to facilitate the sharing of best practices from within the network and beyond, offering ample opportunities for discussion and debate.
The closing session of the Insafe-INHOPE joint training meeting will focus on the latest developments on the Digital Services Act (DSA) and sharing the experiences of trusted flaggers.
The meeting will also include a customary resource competition to showcase the network's diverse range of educational resources and videos; each finalist will deliver a short pitch to encourage others to vote for their resource.
