IDCARE has joined the Safer Internet Day 2019 campaign.
In the spirit of the theme “Together for a better internet”, all Australians are encouraged to collaborate with their communities and support each other in developing the critical skills required for navigating the online world.
This year, the campaign will be focusing on the 4Rs of online safety, and protective measures that can be put in place to ensure safe internet use.
The 4Rs are:
“I treat myself and others the way I like to be treated.”
Respect is not just about respect for others, it is also about respect for oneself. People should understand that everything hey do on the internet creates their digital footstep, and respect for oneself will allow this digital footprint to be a positive reflection of themselves.
“I am accountable for my actions and I take a stand when I feel something is wrong.”
“I question what is real.”
“I get back up from tough situations.”
