"Let’s talk about Porno" - Aufklärung von Internetpornografie und Sexting im Familienalltag
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2017 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Each year, more than 3,7 million children are born in Europe, growing into a tight rearranged media world, whose development entails an unstoppable media embossing. In our view, the biggest challenge in the history of education, combined with a permanent task of prevention debate, because families are the place where the future course for the electronic media use is provided. The Internet has become a formative element in everyday life of growing children. However, in addition to a variety of possibilities and opportunities that new media offer, they also involve risks and hazards. One of these risks, which is increasingly brought into focus of public attention within the last years, is Internet pornography and sexting. Sexual concepts are the most demanded in all search processes and our growing children experience an almost unlimited availability. Thus they can practice an unprotected inconspicuous consumer behavior. Worldwide there are already 200.000 pages with pornographic content. In addition, they are filming or photographing their own sexual activities and disseminating them, called sexting. Hence it is important to make young people aware of their responsibilities. Privacy filters are insufficient and access barriers can be overridden using the mouse. This sensitization needs first of all parental education and this has no alternative and is uncompromising. Parents are therefore the direct target group of IPUS 2015. They are an “emotional training camp” between enhancing control and encouragement of autonomy. However, it is a topic for the children, which is full of shame and therefore difficult to discuss with the parents. In addition, pornography is a taboo for parents too. 52% of parents whose children have seen sex pictures on the Internet deny that their children have seen such things, according to the study "Euro Kids Online". Anyway, 12% of European children and adolescents between 9 and 16 years have already had experiences with the Internet, which were uncomfortable for them. This taboo topic we want to work on with a consortium of 7 European Member States DE, RO, BE, SL, AT, BG and SI and give families access through the language of these "embarrassing topic". We counter this sustained educational task with a dual strategy, which is on the one hand based on teaching instrumental-qualification skills, and which serves a critical and reflective handling on the other hand. It is our goal to combine the two aspects and to integrate them into the social context of sex-education in the family. For the implementation, the following results are expected (more be sought): 1. An interactive Internet platform in at least 7 languages with the following content. 2. Prevention / knowledge transfer in digital literacy through online learning units. 3. Learning modules for intervention and early detection through guidelines for conversation. The Chairman of the Children's Commission of the German “Bundestag” Eckhard Pols as patron of this meaningful educational mission and an European project advisory committee will promote the understanding of these socio-political theme and reinforce the commitment to political participation as an interface to the youth media- protection. The state of research, the view and the experience in Europe is different, so we need a transnational learning in professional exchange, in search of solution approaches. With the implementation of “IPUS 2015” we work actively on the European cross-section issue: "Media Literacy Education" by interpersonal, intercultural and social competences in Europe. The common challenge of strengthening media competencies of the parents softens culturally-traditionally well-established methods of education and creates space for effective, sustainable learning.
