Overview

The research and development project SAFER INTERNET aims at providing a technical solution for a more protected use of the Internet for families, schools, and Internet users in general. The main goal is to tackle harmful and objectionable content such as pornography, violence or racism based on individual user preferences and without imposing forced censorship on users.

Partners

The Safer Internet Project is a joint binational project between SES ASTRA, Luxembourg; the Hasso Plattner Institute at the University of Potsdam, Germany; and the University of Luxembourg & LIASIT.
