WISE KIDS and IT Wales are co-organising a one day conference entitled, “Teen Works 2005: Young People and the Internet”, on the 15th of November 2005. The conference will be held at the Dylan Thomas Centre in Swansea, and is one of the events held as part of ICT Forum Wales 2005.
The conference aims to explore young people's awareness and use of the internet and mobile phones, and look at current and upcoming trends in this area. It also aims to look at current research and guidelines in this area, and provide relevant examples and strategies that young people and adults can use to take advantage of the internet and mobile phone technologies, whilst ensuring their personal safety.
Through the specialist seminars in the afternoon, topics like child protection issues and moderating online communities will also be covered.
The conference will target policy makers, youth organisations, young people, parents, teachers, librarians, local authorities, educational bodies, community groups and businesses with an interest in young people's use of the internet and mobile phone technologies.
