    Stop bullying!

    Online game on cyberbullying, queerophobia and sexism now available
    2026-04-16

    Cyberbullying has been a part of the lives of children and young people for many years. Educational work is essential to prevent cyberbullying. It teaches children to put themselves in the shoes of others and to empathize with the consequences of bullying for those affected. Ideally, they also learn about the legal principles and rules of conduct in our society. This teaches them about the serious consequences that insults and threats can have for the perpetrators. This is exactly what our new online game "Stop bullying! Kimi case", which is now available free of charge.

    New teaching material on data protection for grades 4 to 7
    2026-04-13

    Whether in class chats, on social media or when searching for information - children leave data traces, just like adults. Because media literacy begins with an understanding of one's own data, the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (BfDI) is now providing free, age-appropriate materials for grades 4 to 7 in the new "What is data protection?" series of lessons.

    Media use by young children

    Why children should not use YouTube unsupervised
    2026-04-02

    The Easter holidays are just around the corner. Many families use the free time for outings and media time together. Many young children also come into contact with screen media in the family circle. It is important to take a closer look at what content young children are consuming on tablets and the like. YouTube in particular is not suitable for children. What should parents look out for when young children or even babies are consuming video content? What alternatives are there to YouTube? We provide information about the risks and important tips.

  • In order to see through the manipulation of information, children and young people must learn that and how media are also used for disinformation and extremism. Media education forms the basis for this and also aims to encourage young people to play an active role in shaping democracy in their digital spaces.

    Martin Drechsler, Managing Director of the FSM about manipulative information and democracy
  • For 20 years, klicksafe has been the media literacy rock in the surf of disinformation, hate speech and other online dangers. Good media education succeeds with klicksafe, which develops tailor-made media literacy offers for children, young people, parents and teachers.

    Dr. Marc Jan Eumann, Director of the Rhineland-Palatinate Media Authority about klicksafe
  • If every person has his own facts and constructs his own reality, then it is no longer possible to communicate about problems in a society and search for common solutions.

    Petra Grimm, Head of the Institute for Digital Ethics to the klicksafe material "Forming Opinions in the Digital World
  • #FactProtect is important because with facts we understand, learn and know more and can better classify. A life with facts is worthwhile - committed to the truth.

    Dr. Marc Jan Eumann, Director of the Media Authority Rhineland-Palatinate for Safer Internet Day 2021 - Motto #FactProtect
  • We must not leave children alone with their online experiences. Actively accompany the media use of children and young people. Regularly ask them about current trends and challenges or which channels and influencers they follow. At klicksafe you will find suitable information, tips and conversation starters.

    Deborah Woldemichael, Head of the EU initiative on supporting children and young people in their use of media
  • We work in a strong national and international network for the protection, empowerment and safe participation of children and young people online. After all, online safety is not the task of individual people or institutions; it requires a broad social alliance.

    Deborah Woldemichael, Head of EU initiative klicksafe about klicksafe
  • Pictures are remembered for longer and are also considered to be more truthful. It's not for nothing that we know phrases like "A picture is worth a thousand words". That is why it is so important today to give pupils the tools they need to recognize manipulated images and videos online.

    Dr. Bernd Zywietz, Head of the Political Extremism department at jugendschutz.net about manipulative deepfakes
