Safe Surfing is an innovative project developed by Inclusion Europe and four of its members – Mencap, Anffas, Plena Inclusion and PSOUU - to train persons with intellectual disabilities on data protection and safe online behaviour.
The goal of this project is to provide persons with intellectual disabilities with personal support and knowledge to help them use the internet and share information with others in a safe way.
The Safe Surfing training consists of five interactive online sessions of around 30 minutes. Each session covers an important aspect of safe online behaviour, such as:
-
What is a personal data and how to protect it -
The dangers of internet -
Mobile devices and apps -
How to protect yourself on Facebook -
What to share on the internet
Participants will receive information before and after each session, as well as tipsand exercises. For each module, participants will be able to ask questions directly to the trainer during the session, and also contact the trainer before and after the session.
Project partners recommend having a support person during the training. The support person can be, for instance, a family member or a friend, someone who also uses the internet.
The exact dates of the training depend on the language you choose. If you would like to take part in Safe Surfing training, you can all the necessary information to register in each language of the project:
