About the organisation
BEE SECURE is a governmental initiative involving the Ministry of Education, Children and Youth, the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Family, Integration and Greater Region. BEE SECURE is coordinated by the National Youth Service (SNJ) and operated by SNJ in cooperation with the counselling service KJT, in partnership with Luxembourg House of Cybersecurity, the Luxembourg Police and the Public Prosecutor's Office of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. BEE SECURE is co-financed by the European Commission and operates the Luxembourg Safer Internet Center Luxembourg in the frame of the Digital Europe Programme. BEE SECURE is part of the European network Insafe (awareness-raising centres and helplines) and INHOPE (reporting centres for illegal content).
The initiative’s mission:
BEE SECURE aims to raise awareness for a safety-oriented and responsible use of digital technology to the general public, and to particularly empower children, young people and their entourage (parents, teachers, educators) through targeted offers.
BEE SECURE acts in the following four areas:
- Awareness and information: BEE SECURE disseminates information and advice through various offers and activities. The focus is on awareness trainings. Like the multi-facetted publication offer, trainings cover a broad range of topics. The initiative also regularly launches thematic campaigns and events.
- Orientation and advice: The BEE SECURE Helpline is a counselling service. Anyone can consult the service for questions related to the internet and digital media safety by phone or contact form. The counselling via phone is anonymous and confidential.
- Anonymous reporting platform: The BEE SECURE Stopline is an online platform where three categories of potential illegal content can be reported anonymously: (1) Child sexual abuse material (CSAM), (2) discrimination, racism, revisionism or hate speech and (3) terrorism. Relevant content is forwarded to the national police or other competent authorities.
Trend-Monitoring: BEE SECURE stays abreast of the latest online trends and developments in order to orient its actions. Observations in relation to the use of digital technology of children and young people made by the initiative during its activities in Luxembourg are published annually in the “BEE SECURE Radar” report.
Awareness centre
BEE SECURE disseminates information and advice by systematically providing training sessions in primary and secondary schools (the BEE SECURE awareness training has been integrated into the school curriculum) and also by providing extracurricular training modules dedicated to children and young people, further training for teachers and educators, as well as information events for parents and carers. The initiative also provides publications and practical guides for children, youth and their entourage. BEE SECURE makes this information available to the general public through its websites, social networks and the national press.
