Child Online Protection

Smart, Safe & Confident Online

GISF’s Online Safety Program gives children and young people across Ghana the knowledge, skills and judgement to make the most of the internet while staying safe from its risks.

ABOUT THE Program

Digital Skills for a Connected Generation

For young Ghanaians, the internet is where they learn, socialise, create and increasingly earn. Being safe online now takes more than avoiding strangers. It means spotting a scam, questioning what they see, managing their digital reputation, and understanding how AI and algorithms shape what they see.

GISF’s Online Safety Program brings practical, engaging digital safety education into schools, youth groups and communities. We help young people build habits that protect them now and stay with them into adulthood. They become not only safer users but responsible digital citizens who look out for one another.

Our approach is:

  • Practical: real scenarios young people recognise from their own online lives.
  • Age-appropriate: tailored from primary school through to tertiary level.
  • Empowering: building confidence and critical thinking rather than fear.
