[NCUC-DISCUSS] Protect The Children From the Dangers of the Internet Workshop

Mon Oct 28 12:11:04 CET 2013

find below a paragraph from European Commission web page " Digital Agenda
for Europe":

Self-regulation for a Better Internet for Kids

* *

*Self-regulation is one of the instruments of the European Strategy to
create a better Internet for Children.*

They way children use the Internet and mobile technologies has changed
dramatically in the past years. At the same time, the internet can open a
wide range of opportunities for youngsters when used safely and
responsibly. In order to ensure that children, parents and teachers have
access to the right tools and information for a safe use of the internet
and new technologies, we support industry self-regulation. This enables
industry to create a system by which they can deal rapidly with any
security challenges that may arise.

Some self-regulatory initiatives have already been taken, with our support,
by the industry at European level.
