The evolution of the online safety discussion around the world, but especially in Europe, now encompasses the concept of rights of the child. This builds upon the UN Convention and broadens the debate around monitoring and access to information for children on the Internet. This panel will provide background on the rights being discussed, the implications for online safety, and the progression of the debate in Europe and outside of the US.
