EdTech pt1
Glad to share this part of my contribution to #Education and #Technology whereby I lead the county department in co-ordinating a two day series of roundtable engagements aimed at showcasing Innovative and Strategic advancements towards protecting children on the online space by creating awareness and building capacities to all the players within the ecosystem of the child.
The conversation revolved around ensuring that while working online one is safe from cyberbullying, the content is age-appropriate, gave skills on identifying fake news and showed where one could get assisted should an incidence occur.
Stakeholders from key sectors around the children ecosystem were present with representation from Communications Authority, KESSHA-Kenya Secondary Schools Associations, KFCB, Makueni Students Association, managers from both (CICs)-Community ICT centre and County Technical Training Institutes , coupled with students from Wote PWD centre, Ukia, Wote, Kathonzweni CICs and participation of Makueni boys and Ukia girls high schools. This was in #collaboration with an organization that is a Safer partner with Meta, TikTok and Google. Event held in February 2023.
