Theworld without the internet has become unimaginable.
We use it to connect with friends, learn about new things and enjoy our free time. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic the use of the internet has increased rapidly, providing an invaluable way for people to remain connected and to continue learning and working during lockdowns.
But the pandemic has also unveiled and intensified some pressing issues for young people from cyberbullying and exposure to violent content to rampant misinformation and unequal access to the internet.

Participants will explore how they can use the internet as a member of Generation Digital; not only to communicate, learn and have fun but also to raise their voices as responsible citizens of the world.
By the end of their journey, they will have earned their Surf Smart 2.0 badge and learnt:
