ITU works to protect and empower children online, everywhere. Across five Regions, we support relevant stakeholder to contribute to the protection of children’s rights in the digital environment.  
​In order to create effective and targeted measures, ITU has been working in partnerships since the creation of the COP initiative in 2009. 
Partnerships are essential to reach all target groups on the broad range of stakeholders relevant to child online protection. Our partners include governments, United Nations (UN) agencies, international nongovernmental organizations, academia, the private sector and other multilateral organizations. Together, we advocate for child online protection and empowerment, we support countries to develop adequate frameworks, and build capacity on child rights in the digital environment.   

The COP initiative is open to new strategic partnerships to join forced for children online.
