Youth-led Safer Internet Forum and the BIK Youth Panel
This year’s Safer Internet Forum (SIF) will, once again, benefit from the insights and contributions of young people.

Within these two groups, young people from across Europe will work collaboratively in the coming months to deliver an event that reflects the current aspirations and concerns of youth when it comes to their online lives.
