VoiceBox is an organisation that specialises in youth content and consultation – showcasing the talent of young creators globally. They also ensure that the youth perspective is heard through their independent research and work with tech firms, government bodies and other decision-makers.

After attending the WeProtect global summit in Abu Dhabi this December, VoiceBox director Natalie Foos joins Vicki for the final episode of season nine. Together they unpack the recent WeProtect event, discuss some of VoiceBox’s exciting past (and future) work, and offer up some notable moments from this season of Tech Shock.

Talking points:

• What themes and concerns emerged around online child sexual exploitation and abuse at the WeProtect summit?
• Does online youth participation have to bring with it the current difficulties of social media, or is an alternative model available?
• What developments and issues are actually on young people’s radars – both within the world of tech, and beyond it?
