Listen "How Ghana Combats Rising Internet Safety Threats to Protect Children"
Episode Synopsis
Recent studies show an uptick in digital engagement among African youth, with internet usage rates varying significantly across the continent. In Eastern and Southern Africa, over half (65 percent) of children aged 12-17 have accessed the internet in the past three months, though this figure ranges from just 25 percent in Ethiopia to a staggering 81 percent in Namibia, according to Safe Online. In response, organizations like the Ghana Internet Safety Foundation (GISF) are tackling these challenges head-on, offering education and advocacy to protect children online.
