Qatar University on Digital Family Awareness
The "Digital Conscious Family" campaign launched by the Ministry of Social Development and Family aims to enhance digital awareness among families and youth to protect them from the risks of technology, especially given the widespread proliferation of generative artificial intelligence and digital technologies. Academics at Qatar University emphasized that safeguarding children is not limited to supervision but also involves awareness-raising, developing critical thinking skills, and strengthening cyber safety through initiatives that include providing scientific content and establishing clear guidelines. They highlighted the importance of evaluating campaign outcomes to ensure sustainability. Moreover, building responsible digital behavior is a shared responsibility among families, schools, academics, and national entities. It is also essential to monitor indicators of the child's behavior—such as mood swings or excessive screen use—that may signal digital risks.
