Addressing Online Harms: A Call to Action

As our world becomes increasingly digital, the safety and privacy of online users, particularly children and youth, are under greater threat. The rapid advancement of technology and the emergence of unregulated innovations are outpacing our ability to implement effective protections, leaving users exposed to new and unforeseen risks.

The Need for Immediate Change

The challenges we face are growing and becoming more complex. With the fast pace of technological change, isolated efforts are no longer sufficient. Many organizations struggle to keep up due to a lack of coordinated action and shared resources, resulting in fragmented and inadequate protection. This gap leaves users, especially the younger generation, vulnerable to significant risks.

Join Us in Making a Difference

We and our partners are organizing the Shield Global Online Safety Conference to address these challenges by bringing together a diverse group of stakeholders from around the world. By fostering collaboration and amplifying each other’s efforts, we can create a unified approach to tackling online safety and privacy issues more effectively. This summit aims to educate, inspire, and empower participants to drive meaningful change in their communities. Together, we can build a safer digital future for all.
