Happy #SaferInternetDay! The NoFiltr Youth Innovation Council recently partnered with Discord to talk about teen rights on the internet and how to build a safer internet from digital wellness principles. Here's what our Digital Resource Expert Cayden had to say on the collaboration: "My experience collaborating with Discord not only grew my knowledge about digital literacy, but also allowed me to better understand their mission as an online resource. It was so much fun getting to meet some of the brains behind Discord, and work with like-minded professionals who genuinely care about the things we had to say. It was very fulfilling to know that such a large company actually wants to hear and implement the ideas of younger generations." Learn more about it here: https://lnkd.in/eGbJ-ENx NoFiltr and the NoFiltr Youth Innovation Council is powered by Thorn.
What does a human rights charter have to do with your teen’s favorite place to hang with friends? Today on Safer Internet Day 2024 and everyday, Discord is helping to create a safer and more positive online environment based on a concept known as “teens rights,” a set of principles that centers on the unique needs of young people. It aims to keep them safe while recognizing that they need opportunities to learn—especially when they make a mistake. It’s why we’ve designed our rules with teens in mind: “Teens are going to be trying things out and figuring out who they are and making mistakes online. Discord is focused on helping to guide them through that process without being overly punitive or cutting them off from their support networks and their friends,” says Laney C., Discord’s senior product policy specialist focused on safety.
