Children and Young People’s Commissioner for Scotland, Bruce Adamson:

“Whilst the digital age provides immense opportunities for children to exercise their rights to participation and accessing information, it brings with it significant challenges too. It is important that children know how to use the internet safely and securely and that they know what to do should they feel uncomfortable, afraid or unsafe. Safer Internet Day’s provision of educational resources for adults and children and young people are helpful tools to create necessary and open discussion on consent, personal safety and how to protect yourself online.”
