In particular, the role of social media and the risks it carries for citizens and society have gained significant attention over the past years and prompted policy makers to implement policies and standards as well as share best practices.<\/p>\n<p>This session will explore how such risks could be addressed and mitigated through digital education and skills development programmes.
