1. Raising public awareness and disseminating information on safer use of online technologies. The activities will promote public awareness by providing adequate information about possibilities, risks and ways to deal with them in a coordinated way across Europe. Activities will encourage cost-effective means of distributing awareness information to a large number of users. One of the means of raising public awareness should be small informative pedagogical booklets, clearly written and including explanatory drawings so that they can be easily read and understood by children.
