The NYCI Child Protection Programme is developing a training to support the youth work sector with online safety and awareness, and we would like to have your inputs and feedback as part of this development process. It is important that youth organisations, youth workers and volunteers have the opportunity to share their perspectives on the key issues that impact young people online, and what you think your training needs are in relation to online safety in youth work.
Your contributions can be completely anonymous, or you can indicate your openness for further contact and consultation. Either way, your feedback and insights will help inform the development of this training aimed at supporting you and the young people you work with to be safer online.
