Abstract
DCU’s National Anti-Bullying Research and Resource Centre in partnership with the Joint Research Centre of the European
Commission undertook a study on the experiences of Irish children and families during the Covid-19 lockdown. Fifteen European countries, including Ireland, participated in the study. The goal of this research is to understand how children and parents engaged with digital technology
while staying at home and how these experiences may have impacted children’s online safety and overall family wellbeing. In Ireland, over one thousand participants (504 parents and 504 children and young
people) completed an online survey that asked about exposure to online risks such as cyberbullying and harmful content online; digital technology use-related habits; use of digital technology for school purposes;
parental worries regarding technology use; but also the positive aspects of digital media use for the family, such as the acquisition of digital skills.
