Abstract
This report summarizes the motivation and the goals of the "CyberWiseKids"
project proposal. The proposal was designed by SINTEF in 2015 and revised in
2016, with the aim of developing a research and innovation project which would
involve several industrial and academic partners from Norway and Europe. The
underlying idea was motivated by the need for enabling children and young
people to make the right balance between online opportunities and online risks. A
significant innovation potential was envisioned and elaborated within the
proposal. Although far less detailed than the original project proposal and
excluding several major aspects (e.g. innovation, organization, project plans
research questions, and state of the art) that were part of the original proposal, this
report quotes and reproduces the parts (of the original proposal) regarding
motivation, challenges, and the objectives. The purpose of this report is to
enlighten the persistent challenges that young people are facing while being
online, as well as to indicate the still-existing needs and opportunities for
addressing such challenges through innovation and research.
