How will children be protected on mobile – what is Kids Wallet
The presentation of the National Strategy for the Prevention and Treatment of Violence and Juvenile of Juvenile Aki In ERT’s “Connections” show.
“Today we will present to the Prime Minister a work, which has been done in the last year with his own order and assignment to a committee of distinguished scientists dealing with the issues of crime, delinquency, imprisonment and the general issues of the best and harmonious coexistence in society. These people sat and studied all the phenomena of violence in Greece but also internationally, and good practices, and have made a text, “he said.
This text, as he explained later, “evaluates the policies our government has made from 2019 until today and says where we are doing well, where we can do better by making specific recommendations. It also finds 138 distinct policies concerning any form of violence (domestic, in -school, athletic, racist, extremist and digital violence, this emerging form of violence). “
At the same time, he stressed, “a group of actions and interventions in 29 policy areas will be presented to the Prime Minister and the relevant ministers by Mrs Artopoulou, who is the chairman of the committee.” Overall, he added, there are ten relevant ministries, it is “a complex issue that comes into our home”.
Opportunity, the Minister of State pointed out that “there is violence even in public discourse and we must all be alert. To seek the positive standards and to stand against any form of violence. “
Returning to today’s announcements, “The most emblematic of what will be presented today and surrendered to use is the so -called Kids Wallet. It is the version of the digital wallet, which we all have in the context of gov.gr. We create a digital door for children who have a mobile phone. Parents will be able to exercise the so -called parental control through this application through this application. This is a crucial and key issue. We have found through research that a child can be in front of a screen from 6 to eight hours. Apart from various problems (distraction, poor sleep quality, social isolation) there are many invisible digital risks, “Ah underlined. Skertsos, adding: “The application enables parents, in collaboration with adolescents, to have a better picture of time passing in front of the mobile. They can put cutters for the use of the mobile. ” However, he said, “we do not go downhill to impose something, but to give tools to families.”
In the next point of the interview he reminded that “Greece, under the prime minister, has raised the issue of digital addiction or the responsible use of the Internet and social media worldwide, with the speech he gave to the UN last September, as well as with interventions he has made at European level. The responsible Minister, Mr. Papastergiou, has been in the European Commission. It is our ambition to legislate the so -called digital adulthood year. 15 years to be defined as the threshold where a teenager can make some options freer. But we also consider the scientific suggestions that up to 15 years children are more vulnerable and need increased protection. ” Already, “big platforms have begun to take some measures for example on Instagram there is a zone from 13 to 16 years.”
But he added, “especially on children’s mental health issues, platforms can and should do more and be pressured by governments to do more because there is the so -called digital asymmetry. Technology companies have gathered a great deal of power and governments have been left behind in adult protection but, above all, minors. “
Indeed, the minister had with him in the studio the form that would then be posted on many government portals, and noted that the period 2025 – 2030 is “the period of implementation of the measures”, with a message, as he emphasized: “next to children”.
While on the occasion and the noise caused From the song of a LIGHT LIGHTthen withdrawn, A. Skertsos stressed: “We must not be apathetic to the word of violence or the word of hatred. We hear lyrics deeply derogatory to vulnerable groups of population, this cannot be permitted. “. And he added that while the singer made a statement, “the song must be completely withdrawn.”
Changing the subject of the incident of violence at the Athens Law School, after saying that “we were an exception (compared to the rest of the planet) for many decades,” he said that “in 2019 we pulled a red line, we put an end to the asylum of violence and lawlessness.” In addition, he added, “within university sites there is no active occupation”. While he also cited the position of Minister of Citizen Protection, Michalis Chrysochoid, that “the police will do the impossible possible to find the perpetrators and to be brought to justice. We also have to do more as a government to create a safer environment. “
“Every democratic idea has space at the university”, on the contrary, “no space has any behavior of violence and delinquency,” he underlined.
However, referring to the meeting last Saturday under the prime minister, he announced that “The Minister of Education will announce further tightening measures within the week.” Both for students and for the Rector’s authorities who “do not do their job well”. However, he explained, “there are positive examples, such as the NTUA that has prepared a very good plan with results. Other universities have not been so good. “
He made it clear that he would go to speak at an event that would take place in Law. In any case, “what happened in Law is absolutely condemnable but also an isolated case”. In conclusion, universities are “Spaces of democratic ideas and not just for some ideas of the left or the extra -parliamentary left.”
On the issue of land, being called upon to respond to the position of the leader of the opposition, he opposed that “Mr. Androulakis is positioned as if he had landed in Greece by another planet”. In particular, he said, “the decision of the Council of State nullifies a policy of the 1980s under PASOK government, which enabled prefects to define the limits of small settlements. These delimitation decisions were considered unconstitutional. This is what we are going to correct, a timeless failure that produced insecurity of law to both owners and investors. “
In other words, “the government comes to give legal security to comply with the CoE’s decision,” he said. On the contrary, “Mr. Androulakis asks to go against the Presidential Decree ratified by the CoE, that is, attacks the CoE and the rule of law. This must be very clean. “
The interview ended with the visit to ERT in the afternoon by the Prime Minister, along with the Minister of State. The reason for the visit is that “public television is doing something very important and very moving today. It will offer with the use of artificial intelligence automatic, simultaneous subtitling for people with hearing loss. In the Greek broadcasting landscape first, public television does so -it shows that the state is changing and can give the positive example to the private sector. ” It had been preceded, as Mr Skertsos revealed, his meeting with the Deaf Union, which exposed the human request, so that the deaf could watch a film with their family. “It is one of the many we do in the context of a strategy for people with disabilities, to have a Greece with everyone for everyone,” he said.
