Safer Internet Day

/in
Today (10 February) is Safer Internet Day and it gives us all the opportunity to talk about what is really happening online, and think about what we can each do to make it better.
Because when we each do something small – whether that’s starting a conversation, sharing a tip or changing a habit — we make a big difference to everyone’s online experience.
There are five simple actions we can all do to make a safer internet for everyone:
1️⃣ Be kind – show empathy, respect and kindness in everyone online interaction
2️⃣ Balance time online – make space for offline connection, rest and reflection
3️⃣ Speak up – report online abuse and harmful content using the platform eSafety.gov.au/report
4️⃣ Start the conversation – talk about online safety with your networks – family, friends, colleagues and communities
5️⃣ Protect you space – use privacy settings, strong passwords or parental controls to keep your online space safe
