Fact-checking and verifying information to counter misinformation and manipulation.
Crafting a positive online profile to enhance digital well-being and reputation.
Practicing empathetic online communication.

Description of the tool

The primary goal of this activity is to equip youth leaders, educators, and social workers with the knowledge and skills necessary to protect teenagers from antisocial behaviour on social media platforms. Participants will gain insights into the challenges teenagers face online and develop strategies to promote a safe and positive digital environment.
Expected results:
- Raising awareness among teenagers, youth leaders, educators and social workers about the dangerous psychological consequences of antisocial behaviour on social media
- Youth leaders, educators and social workers in the EU gain didactical methods to train social media skills and emotional regulation skills among teenagers to protect their wellbeing on social media
- Teenage participants in these trainings gain social media skills, emotional regulation skills, mindfulness, empathy and other skills needed to prevent the damage of antisocial behaviour on social media
- Vulnerable teenagers (migrants, refugees, teenagers with mobility issues and mental health issues) are more protected from harmful consequences of antisocial behaviour on social media.
