The SID event started by celebrating the 20th anniversary of the observance. On stage, two presenters from Skuola.net, the media partner of the Italian Safer Internet Centre (SIC) for SID2023, hosted the event and interacted with the audience, consisting of young people from all over Italy, institutions and companies representatives, as well as a range of schools connected remotely.
Meanwhile, at the end of the first part of the event, 100 young people were divided into 10 discussion tables, two for each focus topic chosen from the following:
- Online risks and online safety;
- Network economy;
- Online violence;
- Online well-being;
- Algorithms, AI and democracy.
Together with experts, we explored these topics and shared experiences among peers. The final goal was to build a "solution tree" to be proposed by the youth panel itself to policy makers.
The event was broadcasted live on the pages of the Italian Ministry of Education, Skuola.net and the YouTube page of Generazioni Connesse (the Italian Safer Internet Centre), and the dissemination through the local newspapers was notable.

In addition, during the event the youth Panel designed and used a media kit to report and share their online experiences. You can see the results of this exercise in this and this Instagram posts.
Moreover, the Italian influencer Nikolais also narrated his Safer Internet Day experience through a beautiful video with a vlog dedicated to the event, in which he interviewed not only kids, but also celebrity guests and various stakeholders.
The SID event was also largely disseminated on Instagram, and the SIC also launched the trailer for the new season of the mini webseries We are fearless.
Last but not least, the Italian SIC presented data from research conducted by Skuola.net, the University of Rome and the University of Florence.
