The awarding ceremony at the Niagara Cinema Theatre.


The Media Literacy Week which took place 10.02 - 16.02 is officially over, so as our exhibition. During the whole week visitors could enjoy 23 artworks submitted by 41 child and youngster from 10 to 23 years old from the Tampere region.

The winners were announced and invited to the awarding ceremony at the Niagara Cinema Theatre, our lovely sponsor which kindly allowed us to use its premises and to show videos submitted by our participants and provided by the Finnish Safer Internet Center.


Our team prepared amazing prizes for the winners and recognition gifts to all other participants for all their efforts.

During the exhibition week and the awarding ceremony particularly, we have recevied a lot of positive feedbacks and valuable comments and ideas in our questionnaires on how to help the youth to stay safe online.

Later on we are going to analyze the information and use it in our future brochure which will contain useful tips and information both for children and for adults.
Just follow our updates!





Stay tuned, stay safe,
your Safer Internet Team.

Safer Internet Together Project Team goes to schools

Dear friends,

We are happy to remind you that the Competition of posters, videos and comics is on!
Last couple of weeks our team spent visiting schools, colleges and universities in Tampere, Kangasala, Ylöjärvi and Nokia. During these friendly visits we had a chance to talk with kids and youngsters about dangers that they might face online and efficient ways of avoiding them. It was really amazing to hear their vision of safety in the online environment and see that they are truly concerned about this issue. Some of the students shared their experience of being online and even gave very useful tips of how to stay safe on the Web! Soon you will have a chance to see them in the form of poster or a video.

Remember that the competition lasts until February 5, so you still have time to submit your artwork!
Read the detailed instructions on how to participate in the competition in the official rules (lue säännöt suomeksi täältä) and submit your artwork to safer.children.online@gmail.com by February 5, 2014. 

Safer Internet Together Team wishes you good luck and, most importantly, stay safe online!
