SCIENTIFIC MATINEE IN MOISE – “Who is still afraid of the Internet?”

On April 2nd, 2022, the workshop “Who is still afraid of the Internet?” was held at Moise Palace by Dr. Ivana Kunda from the Faculty of Law, University of Rijeka.

ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:

The Internet opens endless opportunities for learning and entertainment to children and young people, as well as connections that provide them with many valuable and pleasant experiences. However, sometimes it threatens their safety due to the malicious actions of peers or adults. Children and young people are not always aware of the dangers surrounding them. And sometimes even parents are unaware or simply forget about them under the pressure of stressful everyday life. For our children to live in safety and at the same time enjoy all the benefits that modern technology brings them, we need to regularly make them aware of phenomena and procedures that may endanger them and point them to appropriate reactions. In this workshop, children and young people will learn to recognize typical dangerous situations when playing video games on the Internet, communicating on social networks or e-mail, or simply browsing web pages. They will also be empowered in their reactions to these situations so that they can cope better if they encounter them.
