The session was attended by H.H. Sheikha Mariam bint Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice Chair of the Education, Human Development and Community Development Council. It also focused on implementing Federal Decree Law No. 26 of 2025 to enhance child protection in the digital environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the workshop reviewed a comprehensive system to categorise digital platforms based on their functions. These included social interaction and content publishing platforms. Meanwhile, discussions also covered key risk criteria such as content exposure, communication features, and commercial practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, Sana bint Mohamed Suhail, Minister of Family, emphasised that the initiative reflects the UAE\u2019s commitment to placing families at the centre of national policy. She stated that classifying platforms based on risk levels is a strategic step toward a proactive regulatory framework. This approach aims to empower children while safeguarding them from digital threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, participants examined proposed safety obligations for digital platforms. These include enhancing default security settings, restricting high-risk features, and strengthening privacy protections. The initiative also aligns with the national digital safety framework designed to protect children. It promotes cooperation between government entities, families, and digital platforms. Moreover, it includes enforcement mechanisms and a transitional period for compliance with new standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the framework supports a secure and balanced digital ecosystem for children in the UAE. It reinforces long-term protection measures through structured regulation and shared responsibility. <a href=\"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/?s=child+safety\">Child digital safety<\/a> remains a central priority in building a safer digital future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Child digital safety workshop was organised by the Child Digital [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":105377,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9619],"tags":[77,73],"contributor":[9732],"class_list":["post-105375","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-stories","tag-technology","tag-uae","contributor-news-desk"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Child-Online-Protection-with-New-Platform-Rules.jpg.jpeg","author_info":{"display_name":"Rabab","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/rabab\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105375","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105375"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105375\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":105376,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105375\/revisions\/105376"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/105377"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105375"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105375"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105375"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=105375"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
