Be-Free conducts lots of workshops for school students about protection skills over the internet, and the last workshop was for the students of Al-Noiam Secondary Boys School, who showed great interest, and participated with their experiences and ideas.
These training workshops are part of Smart+ program that is concerned about the protection of children and teens from the dangers of internet and mobiles. With the increase use of children and teens to the internet, and spending long hours communicating with others, the need for skills that can help them to use these technologies in a safe way is crucial.
These skills from covers practical aspects of how to stay aware to the way they use the internet, and interact with others, so they don't get dragged into abusive relationships, or commit actions that they don't find suitable.
