As online safety stories continue to garner headlines and influence policymakers, the need for substantive research and data has become paramount. FOSI believes that the best public policies are grounded in evidence, even if compelling anecdotes and narratives help build momentum for a specific bill. With that in mind, we are convening a group of online safety researchers and policy professionals to discuss the latest data in this space and how it can best inform and improve domestic policies.
This in-person event will open with two research presentations focused on teens’ and parents’ online safety habits and perspectives, followed by an opportunity to discuss these presentations as well as consider additional relevant research. We will then shift the discussion to the policy implications of such research and how it can best inform or improve current and future legislation.
Coffee and lunch will be provided. Please register here if you are interested in participating.
