In October 2022, the European Commission launched the Digital Services Act (DSA) package – a series of rules and regulations for online platform providers aimed to create a safer digital space for all users – with some rules that are especially designed to protect minors online. A user-friendly booklet is now available in English, French and German; more translations will follow shortly. It summarises the main content of the articles focusing specifically on the protection of children and young people online. The booklet was launched at Safer Internet Forum 2023.
