Safer Internet Day 2022

Safer Internet Day 8^th February 2022

Safer Internet Day is celebrated globally in February each year to promote the safe and positive use of digital technology for children and young people, and to inspire a national conversation about using technology responsibly, respectfully, critically, and creatively. Safer Internet Day is celebrated in over a hundred countries coordinated by the joint Insafe/INHOPE network, with the support of the European Commission, and national Safer Internet Centres across Europe

The UK Safer Internet Centre co-ordinates Safer Internet Day for the UK on an annual basis. They promote Digital Safety through a themed campaign.

This year the focus of their action centres around ‘All fun and games? Exploring respect and relationships online’. Safer Internet Day 2022 is on 8th February 2022

Central E-Safety Partnership has transformed into WIZE – Digital Wellbeing

The Health and Wellbeing work stream within our RIC has taken on the hosting of online safety resources from the ‘Central E-safety Partnership’ blog and Facebook page, which will soon both close. The Partnership has now been rebranded as ‘WIZE- Digital Wellbeing’ and can be accessed here within our FVWL RIC blog space.

WIZE is made up of representatives of Police Scotland, and Clackmannanshire, Falkirk, Stirling and West Lothian Councils, as well as Further Education and Higher Education and third-sector organisations serving the Clackmannanshire, Falkirk, Stirling and West Lothian Council areas.

WIZE will continue to help celebrate positive and safe uses of the Internet, mobile and digital technology, to reduce online and e-crime and risk of harm to children, young people, adults, and vulnerable groups in the Clackmannanshire, Falkirk, Stirling and West Lothian Council areas.

We are currently migrating relevant resources to the WIZE blog area and will also be adding fresh ones, so please check back regularly for up-to-date online safety resources and best practice ideas.

Collaboration

Our RIC is built on a culture of collaboration. We welcome any sharing of resources or best practice with regards to online safety to disseminate across our four local authorities. You are the innovators, so we really want to hear what you have been doing to promote digital wellbeing. Contact us using the forms on the Digital Wellbeing landing page and use our hashtag #FVWLwize in your Tweets to highlight the great work you are doing!

RSHP ASN

The above link will take you to the national RSHP resource where a wealth of materials are available. Below we will provide some additional links and resources which be of interest as well.

Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood Resource for Young People with Autism Spectrum Disorder

This resource will help everyone involved in delivering sexual health and relationships education to those with an autism spectrum disorder by:

giving autism-specific advice aimed primarily, but not exclusively, at mainstream secondary school staff to encourage innovative, individualised and creative teaching;
giving guidance on the different approaches that can be taken to support individuals with an autism spectrum disorder;
suggesting activities which are designed so that they can and should be tailored to meet the needs of the young people involved using the practitioners’ professional judgements and knowledge of the young people;
supporting education professionals to work in partnership with other professionals, parents and families to ensure the best possible outcomes for young people;
sign-posting useful and reliable sources of information and further help, such as publications and key organisations.
