14th annual edition of Safer Internet Day (SID) took place on Tuesday, 7 February 2017 with a campaign theme of “Be the change: Unite for a better internet”. In championing a better internet, the theme aimed to encourage people to “be the change” and make the most of the positive opportunities offered online, while giving them the resilience, skills, knowledge and support they need to navigate any online risks they may come across. Organised by the Insafe network (coordinated by European Schoolnet) and INHOPE (the International Association of Internet Hotlines), on behalf of the European Commission1, Safer Internet Day 2017 was celebrated in over 130 countries, with exciting events and activities promoting the safe and positive use of digital technology right across the globe. A few highlights from the day include: A Thunderclap campaign helped spread the better internet message on the morning of Safer Internet Day with a potential reach of close to two million people. On social media, the coordination-level profiles concluded the day with 16,000 fans on Facebook and 23,000 followers on Twitter. The #SID2017 and #SaferInternetDay hashtags trended worldwide several times during the day with in excess of 125,000 tweets and a potential 1.1 billion impressions. The day also benefited from the support of many influential organisations and individuals such as Twitter, INTERPOL, Europol, ITU, European Commission, Andrus Ansip, UNODC, Members of the European Parliament, UNICEF and Manchester United football club, to name just a few. This year’s campaign was also boosted by some great industry collaborations. Google included a Safer Internet Day promotion on a few of its market search pages, promoting the #SaferInternetDay hashtag and encouraging a Google security check- up in honour of the day. Facebook provided free ad credit to help boost SID posts. Snapchat created a special SID geofilter for its users (with a custom one for SID events in the UK and the US also) along with an original animation on its Discover channel, while Twitter helped to raise visibility of the official campaign hashtags by creating a special Safer Internet Day emoji.

  • Celebrating Safer Internet Day Across the World
    Celebrating Safer Internet Day Across the World Almost 40 countries will participate in the fourth edition of Safer Internet Day (SID) which this year takes place on 6 February. The event is organised by European Schoolnet, coordinator of Insafe, the European safer internet network (www.saferinternet.org). Viviane Reding, EU Commissioner for the Information Society and Media is once again patron of Safer Internet Day, as in the past two years. The highlight of the day will once again be a worldwide blogathon, which will reach Australia on 6th February and progress westward through the day to finish up in the USA and Canada. Following the huge success encountered in 2006, this year’s blogathon goes one step further to include the voices of hundreds of youngsters. In the framework of a competition launched in October 2006, more than 200 schools in 25 countries across the globe have been working in pairs, using technology to cross geographical borders, to create internet safety awareness material on one of three themes: e-privacy, netiquette, and power of image. On Safer Internet Day, all of the projects they have produced will be uploaded to the blogathon. The 4 prize-winning teams in the competition will be announced on 6 February when the blogathon opens to well over 100 organisations waiting on the starting block to add their postings on this year’s theme, Crossing borders.. To find out more about young people’s use of the internet and mobile phones, Insafe has been collecting data over the past two months through an online survey (http://insafe-survey.eun.org/).

    EUROPEAN COMMISSION PRESS RELEASE Brussels, 11 February 2014 Global Safer Internet Day 2014: “Let's create a Better Internet together” Safer Internet Day is being celebrated today in over 100 countries (including the USA for the first time.) In one of thousands of events taking place European Commission Vice- President Neelie Kroes will reward the creators of the best online content for kids and, together with INSAFE, will launch a Youth Manifesto on how to make a better Internet based on ideas from young people. Neelie Kroes said: “This initiative is exciting – it’s young people speaking up directly about what they want from the most important infrastructure in our world today, the internet. I have no doubt they will follow through with action.” Safer Internet Day 2014 is all about a better Internet to encourage people of all ages to create good online content for youngsters. The winners of the best online content are chosen from 1100 entries. The awards will be given to the adults and children from Belgium, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Iceland, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia and the United Kingdom. Neelie Kroes said: "I see children and young people doing amazing things with digital tools. We need to encourage that, help them to be safe, and give them ways to create a better internet themselves – and to stand up against cyber-bullies.” Winners of the best online content awards in four categories: • Young individuals - 15 year old Dutch girl Jiami Xili Jongejan for her blog Lifesplash on fashion, school, cooking, and sports. • Young people groups - Video blog about the Polish language created by the pupils of Saint John Cantius Primary School in Bestwina, Poland.
