to use IT tools in a balanced way, etc.) as
well as practical guides for children, young
people, and their peers. BEE SECURE makes
this information available to the general
public through its websites, social networks and the national press.
2. Guidance and advice: The BEE SECURE
Helpline is a contact point for questions
related to online safety and the responsible use of new communication technologies. It is aimed at the general public and
especially to children, young people, parents, seniors as well as teachers and educators. The Helpline is a free service, with
anonymous and confidential treatment of
information.
3. Reporting illegal content: Through the BEE
SECURE Stopline, illegal online content
can be reported anonymously and confidentially. These reports can be classified in
one of three categories: child sexual abuse
material (CSAM); discrimination, racism
or revisionism; or terrorism. The alerts are
analysed and, if necessary, will be forwarded to the relevant authorities.
4. Watch: Regular exchange with children
and young people during training courses,
analysis of requests on the BEE SECURE
Helpline and collaboration with the “Youth
and Kids Panels” discussion groups enables BEE SECURE to follow trends closely. The exchange with different national
and international partners completes the
trend monitoring. The results of the trend
monitoring will be shared through BEE
SECURE ‘RADAR’.
Founded in 2010, the BEE SECURE government initiative is operated by the ‘Service
National de la Jeunesse’ (SNJ) and the
‘Kanner-Jugendtelefon’, in partnership with
SECURITYMADEIN.LU, the
Grand-Ducal
Police and the Public Prosecutor’s Office of
the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The ministries involved are the Ministry of National
Education, Children and Youth, the Ministry of
the Economy and the Ministry of Family and
Integration.
BEE SECURE is also the Luxembourg representative of the Safer Internet Center (SIC)
co-funded by the European Commission and
as such is supported by a network of international counterparts and partners: INSAFE
(awareness centres and helplines) and INHOPE
(reporting centres for illegal content).
Thanks to its experience on the ground in
Luxembourg and its established network of
partners, BEE SECURE is able to contribute in
a concrete way to the empowerment of the
user.
