Aims & approach

Digital Wellbeing and Safety aims to help students to better understand the current digital climate - issues like addiction, bullying, safety, disconnection, desensitisation, self-help, and balance.

The program provides tailored face-to-face and online seminars for students, educators and parents, using surveys and scenario-based learning on gaming and social platforms. With experience in policing, law enforcement and digital spaces, the program facilitators aim to equip audiences with tools and strategies to navigate the digital world.
