Talking about child protection in #gaming is paramount and safety must be built into the design - important discussions representing WeProtect Global Alliance at Microsoft European Affairs last week with INACH Pegi Rating European Commission Microsoft and others!

From WeProtect Global Alliance: When the internet was developing we focused on the positives. Easy to see why children are excited by it, but also easy to see how predators have found it works in their favour. We've relied on children themselves to report...

Back to presenting at in-person conferences and where better to start than Marie Collins Foundation for two days of engaging discussion on preventing child sexual #abuse? An honour to give the keynote speech for WeProtect Global Alliance alongside Joanna Shields and promote cross-sector collaboration.

I'm learning a huge amount from many WeProtect Global Alliance members and others at this important event. As ever, the most important takeaway is from survivors: to ensure those affected by child sexual abuse are able to safely share their expertise to improve the overall response.

We are delighted to share our newly updated tagline! “Building partnerships for resilient communities” reflects a renewed focus on empowering communities and CSOs on the ground while advocating for their rights among 🌍 decision-makers. bit.ly/3sxSS1r

We were honoured to attend a Paris Peace Forum roundtable launching a Laboratory for Childhood Protection Online. We are grateful for President Emmanuel Macron's leadership & look forward to supporting the Laboratory to develop & evaluate solutions to child abuse online. #PPF22

One way of engaging with young people is via internal work with youth safety councils, says Julie de Bailliencourt. TikTok UK has established a council today, as well as integrating new content filtering tools into their Family Pairing offering. #FOSIeuro newsroom.tiktok.com/en-us/updating…
