How to support young people in consciously building an online image?

The leaflet explains how to support young people in consciously building their online image. 

It shows that social media can help with self-expression, building relationships, and developing digital skills, but also carries risks such as pressure to compare, identity crises, loss of privacy, or cyberbullying. It provides guidance for teachers and educators on how to talk with teenagers and young people, emphasising trust, reflection, and strengthening self-esteem, resilience, and critical thinking. 

The leaflet highlights that the most important support is a caring adult who listens without judgment.
