Slovak Safer Internet Centre

Slovak Safer Internet Centre (SK SIC) consists of three components: Awareness centre (Zodpovedne.sk; Responsibly in Slovak language), Helpline (Pomoc.sk; Help in Slovak language) and Hotline (Stopline.sk). The philosophy of SK SIC is reflected in the graphic message, which resembles a child’s hand, as well as the World Wide Web symbol and colours intend to evoke the traffic lights analogy. The green represents the green light for responsible use of internet and modern technologies. Orange stands for the helping hand. Red light symbolises the stop sign for illegal content and conduct in the virtual space. 

Awareness centre´s aim is informing children, parents and teachers about better and safer use of the Internet, building on enhanced digital resource centres (repositories), from which specific awareness toolkits and services are adapted and deployed, in cooperation with third parties (schools, industry). More specifically the awareness centre: 

  • devises awareness campaigns and resources targeting children, parents, grandparents, teachers and social workers on how to give children the digital skills and tools they need to take advantage of the Internet and to navigate safely online, promoting awareness of parents and children about online quality content and experiences, and makes the associated resources available through their services,
  • evaluates the impact of the awareness campaigns on the target groups and provides qualitative and quantitative feedback at European level through the core service platform,
  • establishes and maintains partnerships and promotes dialogue and exchange of information with key players (government agencies, ISPs, user organisations, education stakeholders) at national level.
