Anjela worked as an Education Advisor with Netsafe as the Harmful Digital Communications legislation was introduced, supporting Kura and schools across the motu.
"Issues were happening online and we needed someone who could talk with our juniors around respectful relationships, sexting, digital footprint, etc, and help our staff understand what it's like today for teens. We wanted something a bit deeper and interactive, so we planned with Anjie a number of workshops with smaller groups of students. It was great, the students now have tools and awareness of what to do to keep themselves safe, and agency and actions they can take when things go wrong."
