The video discusses a 2020 report by 7amleh - The Arab Center for the Advancement of Social Media**, titled *“Digital Safety Among Jerusalemite Children & Youth.” The report examines the digital safety challenges faced by Palestinian children and youth in East Jerusalem, highlighting their lack of awareness and protection in the online space. Key findings reveal that 87% avoid political discussions online due to fear of prosecution, over 50% face verbal violence, and caregivers lack the skills to monitor internet use. The report calls for increased digital safety training, integrating digital safety into school curriculums, and creating support frameworks for adolescents and parents. It aims to inform interventions to protect the digital rights of East Jerusalem’s youth, who face unique challenges due to Israeli annexation and neglect.
