Workshop 1 – Youth and cybercrime: engagement, challenges and solutions

Young people are both key actors and vulnerable groups in the digital space, making their engagement crucial in addressing cybercrime. This workshop aims to provide a platform for youth representatives from diverse regions to share their perspectives on cybercrime challenges and expectations from law enforcement, private sector actors, and policy responses. By fostering dialogue between youth, experts, policymakers, and industry representatives, this session will identify priorities for youth engagement, discuss digital rights and responsibilities, and explore strategies to enhance youth involvement in cybercrime prevention and response.
