ANKARA, 17 December (BelTA - Anadolu) - The Turkish Ministry of Family
and Social Services will host a "Children in a Digital World Workshop"
on Tuesday, in collaboration with UNICEF.
The event aims to address the rapid integration of the digital world into children's lives, examining its effects, opportunities, and risks, the ministry said in a statement.
The workshop seeks to ensure that children can healthily engage with the digital world, benefit from its opportunities, and be protected from potential risks.
It follows on from a recent workshop on digital addiction and families and will make a significant contribution to legal frameworks and practices.
