Three events to strengthen the educational alliance between schools and families
In recent years, European institutions have repeatedly drawn attention to the need to protect minors in digital environments without resorting to simplifications or generalised bans, but by promoting education, awareness and shared responsibility.
The recommendations of the European Union and national guidelines converge on a number of key points:
- strengthening the digital skills of children and adolescents
- supporting the educational role of families
- accompanying the conscious use of technologies, including in the home
- promoting intergenerational dialogue as a means of prevention
Three events, one in person and two webinars, dedicated to families, teachers and educators, fit into this framework.
Media and minors: a dialogue between generations
In-person event
PARTICIPATE
An open discussion to address the relationship between young people and technology in a non-ideological way.
The focus is not only on the use of devices, but also on the transformations affecting:
- identity and relationships
- online group dynamics
- the development of critical thinking
- the role of adults as competent mediators
The aim is to translate institutional recommendations into concrete educational practices, strengthening the school-family alliance.

The latest European guidelines emphasise the importance of developing digital citizenship skills and self-regulation abilities in minors.
The webinar helps parents and teachers understand how children and adolescents experience the continuity between the physical and digital environments today, offering tools to:
- promote autonomy and critical thinking
- prevent phenomena such as cyberbullying and online exclusion
- manage conflicts related to media use
- accompany growth in an increasingly “virtual” context
Inside the connected home: smart devices, AI toys and digital security

European recommendations on the protection of minors online also draw attention to the home environment: smart TVs, voice assistants, wearables, connected appliances and smart toys.
The webinar explores:
- what data domestic devices collect
- how AI toys work
- what are the risks related to privacy and profiling
- how to build safe digital habits in the family
An opportunity to transform the connected home into a space for learning and awareness, not just technological consumption.
Educating beyond prohibitions
The European debate shows that regulation alone is not enough: we need a systemic investment in skills and in the quality of dialogue between generations. Accompanying children and young people means building digital culture, critical thinking and shared responsibility. Because protecting minors online is not just a technical or regulatory issue: it is an educational challenge that concerns the entire community.
