Hi everyone,

We would like to share a new report from CDT titled “The Kids are 
Online: Research-Driven Insights on Child Safety Policy. 
<https://cdt.org/insights/the-kids-are-online-research-driven-insights-on-child-safety-policy/>” 
The report summarizes key discussions and insights from a research 
symposium held in September of last year on research and policy related 
to child safety online. The event brought together top researchers, 
policy experts, and civil society representatives to explore open 
questions and research-driven approaches to improving youth safety in 
digital spaces.

Some of the key themes highlighted in the report include the need for 
evidence-based and youth-centric approaches, greater researcher access 
to data, and cross-sector collaboration. It also outlines opportunities 
for action, such as implementation of default safety protections, 
customizable user tools, and digital literacy strategies.

Please find the full report here:

We welcome any feedback and encourage you to share the report with others.


thanks,

Dhanaraj
