Online Usage of Europe's Children and Adolescents under Review

50 researchers from more the 30 countries were discussing online chances, risks and challenges for children and adolescents in Europe last week in Hamburg. The research network EU Kids Online (since 2006) is planning a second international representative survey, which allows comparative analysis with the data from the first survey (2010) and from the Net Children Go Mobile project (2013/2014). Currently, the network encompasses 33 countries.EU Kids Online is interacting closely with the Gobal Kids Online project (funded by UNICEF) and similar comparative studies in Latin America and Australia.Since 2014, Uwe Hasebrink (Hans-Bredow-Institut) has overtaken the coordination of the network from Sonia Livingstone (LSE).For more information about the network and its research findings see www.eukidsonline.net snd www.eukidsonline.de.
