Child welfare and modern technologies
More about the research objective
The Internet is the most powerful and fastest-growing medium in human history. Modern electronic media, especially the new digital technologies and their potential information and communication capabilities, create a specific area of human functioning that is referred to as the virtual world or cyberspace. Although the Internet, in its original form, was intended primarily to serve the academic community, its dynamic development and its use for commercial purposes, have meant that the Internet has begun to have a huge impact on human attitudes, mentality, social, political, economic and cultural processes taking place in the modern world, but has also become a space for new forms of socialisation.
The saturation of the market with advanced technologies and IT equipment has resulted in ever-increasing risks of cyberspace, especially for children. In the framework of the project 'Child welfare and modern technologies', the research group will address issues such as: ensuring that all children have free access to quality content online; protecting children from abuse, exploitation, cyberbullying, trafficking and access to inappropriate content; safeguarding children's privacy and identity online; digital literacy education to ensure access to information and online safety; safe use of AI; obtaining private sector support to develop ethical standards and practices online; and placing children at the centre (taking into account their particular vulnerability and ensuring that they are protected and cared for as much as is necessary for their well-being) when developing digital policies.
