Panel
Child Online Protection – a must have in a club’s child protection framework?
Football clubs protect children from harm by having sound safety measures and a protection framework in place. Nonetheless, many clubs are struggling to include online safety policies, even though they use digital tools in their communication with the children or publish their personal data on websites or social media channels.
Why is it important to fill the gap and treat online safety as an equal to offline safety? How can clubs ensure that they don’t expose children to online risks?
The panel gives voice to a young person engaged in online safety work, EFDN members and Child Online Protection experts to jointly discuss the role of football clubs in ensuring that children and youth are protected and empowered online.
The panel is linked to a breakout session in the afternoon that presents recommendations on the drafting of online safety policies and implementation of related measures.
Breakout Session
Child Online Protection – a practical approach to include online safety in sport organisations
Following the panel discussion in the morning, this breakout session presents recommendations on how to fill gaps in a club’s child protection framework and ensure that online safety measures are implemented.
