RISE
Action-based approach in addressing and mitigating risks of young people in online social networks
The main objective of the project is to address the digital transformation in the post-COVID-19 era, by focusing on the novel power of social networks that was revealed during the pandemic. RISE has a primary objective to create a framework where young people feel safe in online communities through developing and promoting methodologies and services to prevent and combat the risks and implications of digitalization, especially the social media exposure of young people.
RISE focuses on four elements: Prevention, Identification, Mitigation, and Tools to mitigate the risks.
