Children, youth, parents, survivors, government, private sector, civil society, and global institutions meet for High-Level roundtable at G20 Social Summit to launch new coalition to align on investment priorities and scale solutions that work to protect children online
To the Leaders of the G20 Nations, We, the undersigned — representatives of governments, child rights organisations, the private sector, survivor advocates, parents and children — unite in one shared appeal:
Last week, researchers and industry partners gathered for the third year in a row – this time in Singapore – to bring together different perspectives and expertise for tackling online CSEA.
In an era where digital technology permeates every aspect of children’s lives, the digital threats impacting their safety have never been greater. The recent Digital Dialogue on Children’s Digital Safety, co-hosted by Safe Online, WHO, and UNICEF, brought together over 250 global stakeholders—governments, survivors and youth leaders, civil society, and experts—to transform commitments into tangible action.
On 30-31 May 2022, End Violence’s Safe Online initiative brought together over 40 grantees and partners from across the world alongside donors, and industry representatives from the Tech Coalition in a unique opportunity aligned around a common vision to end online child sexual exploitation and abuse (CSEA).
To combat the growing threats in the digital space, Safe Online launched a global call for proposals in 2023. After a rigorous and thorough selection process, 23 grantees have been selected to receive USD 10 million. The new investment grows Safe Online’s investment portfolio to USD 100 million across 106 projects with impact in 100 countries and accelerates Safe Online’s globally important role as a catalyst for new solutions to combat digital harms.
The Tech Coalition Safe Online Research Fund is going into its fourth year! Ongoing collaboration between Safe Online and the Tech Coalition will center the Research Fund’s efforts on generative AI , ensuring we make meaningful progress in this critical area.
