Presentazione Comunicato

Welcome to another edition of the Dispatch! This month, we would like to bring your attention to a subject that is current and relevant to you and every member of TakingITGlobal: online safety and security. As the youngest citizens of our world, we are particularly good at maneuvering and interacting online. Despite our familiarity with the Web, we are not exempt from being a target of those who use the Internet as a tool for harm. In our Featured Theme, we'll introduce you to the issues and give you tips on how to protect your computer and more importantly, yourself. :)

Keep safe and sound, and have a great month wherever you are!

Amichevolmente,

La Squadra di TakingITGlobal

Lingua come Violenza, Violenza come Lingua

TakingITGlobal in partnership with UNESCO and the support of the Salesforce.com Foundation is developing a range of initiatives around the theme Language as Violence, Violence as Language including:
  • Una Collezione Artistica In Linea
    Young people participated in a range of vibrant workshops and training sessions, facilitated by local partners, and then worked on producing photographs. Images have been gathered with partners in a range of cities, and were then uploaded to the collection.
  • Una Rivista Creativa (in collaborazione con l'UNESCO)
    The creative magazine will be presented at the UNESCO Youth Forum and then produced by the end of 2005.
  • Un Breve Video Multimediale
    This multimedia video will encapsulate the content presented at the UNESCO Youth Forum and will then be available for download: clicca qui.
These initiatives aim to enable young people to discuss the manifold forms of violence that young people encounter, perceive and express in their daily social environment and, most importantly, to actively explore and develop alternative languages to violence. Clicca qui.



Tema Attuale di Panorama: Cittadini Cybernetici

Come possiamo evitare di rimanerne danneggiati?

Global Gallery Contest "Virtual Citizenship, Real Safety

The Internet is a place to explore, a mode of communication, a source of information. Many people find and thrive along the information highway, rounding its curves and linkages. Others find a venue for expression and nodes to give voice to their opinions and creative thoughts. The web emerges as a place of interwoven connection and opportunity, but also a place of hidden dangers. This month the Global Gallery explores the concept of Online Safety and Security through a poster contest. We want you to create a poster on any of the following topics, or come up with your own idea.

Argomenti possibili sono:
  • Proprietà Intelettuale
  • Furto d'Identita
  • Cyber Cittadinanza
  • Cyber Predators and Bullying
  • Sicurezza Online: Proteggendo il tuo computer
Posters submitted by October 31, will be eligible for showcasing at the World Summit on the Information Society in November, and viewed by thousands of people! The contest will remain open until November 31.
