Quizzz it up! The Insafe network is launching its first global activity for Safer Internet Day 2009, 10 February 2009, namely a quiz available in 22 languages!

The quiz addresses young people between 10 and 15 years of age, and requires them to answer to a series of multiple choice questions followed by a final challenge.

To underline the importance of media literacy and how valuable a tool the internet is for learning and information searching, contestants are invited to answer questions on a variety of topics, including culture, geography, history and of course modern communication media!

The aim of the quiz is to reach out to young internet users and build momentum for Safer Internet Day that is going to be celebrated in more than 50 countries worldwide on 10 February 2009. The winners of the quiz will be invited to attend an event in Luxembourg celebrated on the day.
