Better Internet for Kids

As part of the Safer Internet Day (SID) 2026 campaign, the Safe.si awareness centre prepared materials to support safer online shopping. A checklist for determining whether a purchase from an online store is safe can be printed and used to evaluate online shops. It is intended for teenagers and parents, helping them assess whether an item is worth buying and whether the online store is trustworthy or potentially a scam.

As part of the Safer Internet Day (SID) 2026 campaign, the Safe.si awareness centre prepared materials to support safer online shopping. With three different interactive quizzes tailored to specific age groups of teenagers, they can be used to test knowledge of the risks of online shopping:

On Safer Internet Day (SID), 10 February 2026, the Safe.si awareness centre organised a webinar for parents. Children, especially teenagers, are exposed to advertising and various purchasing incentives while using the internet. In this way, they often enter the world of consumerism and online shopping, whether they intend to or not, without being fully familiar with it.

This study explores the experiences of children aged 11–16 with Discord, loot boxes, and gaming influencers. The aim is to give adults insight into these parts of children’s online lives and to highlight how we can best support them in navigating this world safely and confidently.

The survey is based on responses from 1,785 children aged 11–16 across Denmark. Data was collected by Epinion in December 2025, through a web-based questionnaire distributed to parents, who were asked to let their child complete the survey.

Key findings:

This initiative is aimed at young people themselves, as well as their families and educators. It provides a range of accessible, easy-to-understand resources, including blog articles, infographics, visual content, podcasts, and an online workshop for classroom use.

As a general overview, the resource discusses what AI is and how it influences the daily lives of minors and their environment. It also explores its main challenges and opportunities, and the different guidelines for using this technology responsibly.

A comprehensive analysis of children's perspectives on AI-generated sexual content (nudify apps) based on a study of 880 minors and 1,255 free-text responses. The report concludes with an urgent call from children for policymakers to take responsibility by abolishing the "puberty requirement" in Swedish legislation, which perpetrators exploit via AI, and implementing an outright ban on technology developed primarily for non-consensual sexual exploitation. 

This educational material focuses on children’s rights as consumers online (Dina rättigheter online – ung konsument), including purchases in games and apps, misleading advertising, and sustainable consumption.

The material is the second part of the Your Rights Online series. The first part covers young people’s digital rights more broadly.

As part of developing a digital tool to support educational professionals in using Danish-produced digital games in their pedagogical practice, the Centre for Digital Youth Care conducted two user-testing workshops with 30 young people aged 10 to 20. In this article, we describe how these workshops were conducted and present the key findings and outcomes.

Respectful Conduct is a training resource for school staff who want to prevent harassment and abusive behaviour in online games, game chats, and other digital environments.

For many children, games and online chats are important spaces for social interaction, collaboration, and play. At the same time, inappropriate language, hostile comments, and abusive behaviour can have a significant impact on those who are subjected to them.
