Protecting Young People Online

Horizon has a rich portfolio of research addressing protection of young people online. Research findings from the CaSMa, UnBias and Re-Entrust projects, which explored the ethical challenges around social media, how to emancipate users from algorithmic bias and rebuilding trust in online platforms feature in our case study submission to the 2021 Research England Framework (REF).  Find out how our research was instrumental in underpinning the amendment added to the 2018 UK Data Protection Act and the translation and implementation of the Age Appropriate Design Code introduced by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) in 2020 here.
