View attachment 23228



With the participation of thousands of students and dozens of primary school teachers from various geographical areas of Cyprus and Greece, the online educational action "Athena and Dickie in the Magic World of the Internet", on the topic of Internet safety, took place.
This educational action was co-organized, for the first time, on Monday 20 December 2021, by the Cyprus Internet Safety Centre - CYberSafety (https:/www.cybersafety.cy), which is coordinated by the Cyprus Pedagogical Institute of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports and Youth, and the Hellenic Internet Safety Centre (https:/saferinternet4kids.gr/). The action was aimed at empowering creative and critical thinking students on issues of creative, responsible and safe use of the Internet.
This educational action was attended by about 200 classes of 1st and 2nd grades of primary schools in Cyprus and Greece. With great interest and enthusiasm, the pupils, with the help of the authors and heroes of the fairy tales "Athena learns about personal data" and "Dickie in the Magic World of the Internet", were informed in a creative way about the safe and responsible use of the Internet.
The relevant activity, which offered the opportunity for classes from Greece and Cyprus to connect and communicate remotely, was very satisfying for the participating students. In addition, the whole effort is evaluated as very important, because it further strengthens the close cooperation between the two Safer Internet Centres (Cyprus and Greece). In addition, this effort adopts the encouragement of the relevant bodies of the European Union (Insafe and INHOPE) to exchange views, best practices, experiences and know-how regarding the promotion of safe and responsible use of the Internet, as well as the exchange and exploitation of educational material, in printed and digital form, between the two Centres. This cooperation is expected to continue and intensify even further in the coming period.
