What does klicksafe do?
Who is klicksafe?
klicksafe has its base in the CEF Telecom Programme of the EU
and is a mutual endeavour of the Media Authority of Rhineland-
Palatinate (LMK, coordinator) and the Media Authority of North
Rhine-Westphalia. The EU programme is being implemented in
Germany by the group Saferinternet DE, whose members
are klicksafe (as Awareness Centre), the hotlines eco and FSM
(as Internet-Beschwerdestelle.de) and jugendschutz.net,
and the helpline Nummer gegen Kummer.
International cooperationOn the international level, klicksafe cooperates closely with
European partners and is a member of Insafe (Internet Safety
Awareness for Europe). This network cultivates an intensive
exchange of materials, experience, and expertise – an important
aspect of klicksafe’s work.
Advice and assistanceThe Advisory Board supports and consults klicksafe as well
as the Saferinternet DE partners. Topics such as media literacy,
internet safety, and protection of minors in the media are
discussed at regular meetings of the 22 members representing
the field of education, research, protection of minors,
industry, and crime prevention.
Strong partnersklicksafe also cooperates with partners in diverse areas
including profit and non-profit organisations, institutions,
foundations, universities, professional associations, enterprises,
ministries, etc. There have been, for example, mutual
undertakings with iRights, Wikipedia, profamilia, Google,
facebook, the Consumer Advice Centre North Rhine-
Westphalia or Stuttgart Media University.
Prize-winning safetyThe klicksafe Prize for Internet Safety is awarded annually in the
categories “web offerings” and “projects, measures, and initiatives” to
honour exceptional achievements in the field of promoting media
literacy and safe handling of the internet.
Demonstrating presenceklicksafe participates regularly at trade fairs and public events, such
as didacta, gamescom, prevention conferences or media forums.
The initiative also conducts events of its own, for example when
launching new publications.
Sounding board and media scout for young usersSince 2009, klicksafe has been hosting a Youth Panel at several
secondary schools; in September 2013, a Children's Panel was
also initiated at an elementary school. The two panels are focus
groups: their members provide essential information about
the media habits of young people and at the same time serve as
multipliers within their peer groups.
Spots point at risks on the netklicksafe has launched two very successful spots together with
the advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather: “Where is Klaus?” and “Where
do you live?”. The two clips have contributed significantly to the
popularity of klicksafe – and “Klaus” is now circulating in more than
25 languages: www.klicksafe.de/spots
Safer Internet Day as a highlightFor the past ten years, klicksafe has initiated and coordinated the
Safer Internet Day in Germany. Annually, on the second Tuesday in
February, there are public events and
actions held across the country to
focus on internet safety, with
numerous participants
and contributors. At a press
conference with prominent
guests on Safer Internet Day,
klicksafe informs the public
about the latest challenges of
internet safety.
