While the Internet provides new opportunities it also exposes children to evolving risks. Therefore, protecting children who are online is a local and global priority. One of the topics discussed through FPA Sri Lanka's Comprehensive Sexuality programmes for school children and out of school youth is how to be safe online.

Comprehensive sexuality education is a curriculum-based process of teaching and learning about the cognitive, emotional, physical and social aspects of sexuality. It aims to equip children and young people with knowledge, skills, attitudes and values that will empower them to realize their health, well-being and dignity; develop respectful social and sexual relationships; consider how their choices affect their own well-being and that of others; and understand and ensure the protection of their rights throughout their lives.

How and why are Sri Lankan's young people using digital technologies and the internet?
