Social media safety tips
We want to make sure that students use social
media networking safely and responsibly
during the competition. There is a fuller guide
to social media use in the Malala Youth Voice
student toolkit, but here are our top safety tips
to communicate to students:
Be sensible when posting any information
about yourself never share your phone
number, address, date of birth, or pictures of
your home, workplace or school.
Pick a username that does not include
personal information about you. Be careful about which photos and videos
you share on social media sites as once
youve put them online, other people may be
able to see and download it.
If you share photos or videos of other people,
make sure you have their permission rst.
Use the privacy and security settings on
social media sites so that only friends and
family can see your pages.
If you suspect that someone is trying to
access your information or befriend you and
you are uncomfortable about this close
down your account and inform your teacher/
parent/guardian.
Make sure you log out of accounts when you
are nished using them and shut down old
accounts that are no longer in use.
Be responsible in your online actions, and
treat others as you want them to treat you.

who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her
