NGO Girls has developed a set of tools for analyzing online behavior as part of the E-mpowerYouth project with the support of International Child Development Initiatives and in cooperation with LHSH, Fundacja PRO-FIL and Opora Foundation. The tools will allow teenagers to analyze how safe their behavior on the Internet and social networks is and whether there is a risk of encountering gender-based violence online.
The main goal of the E-mpowerYouth project is to improve the digital safety of young displaced people by developing and implementing gender-oriented tools that prevent, detect, and counteract gender-based violence on the internet. The project aims to raise awareness about online safety, develop media literacy, and provide young people and their parents with the skills to understand and manage the risks associated with online violence.
