Safer Internet Day – 9 February 2010

Monday 08 February 2010, 3:35pm

The theme for this year’s Safer Internet Day, to be held on Tuesday 9 February, is ‘Think B4 U Post'.

Safer Internet Day is organised by INSAFE each year in February to promote safer and more responsible use of online technology and mobile phones, especially among children and young people.

To increase public awareness, the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre has launched a micro-site to give teachers, youth workers, and child protection specialists ideas about how to get involved.

Registering on the website provides access to various educational resources – like assembly programmes and primary/secondary aged resources – provided free by CEOP, Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) and other organisations.

In 2009, Safer Internet Day was marked by organisations from 50 countries across the world, including the IWF.
