NetSafe Strategic Partnership

(Links to Strategy 2: Advocacy and Public Policy)

Project Sponsor: N/A

Staff Support: Jordan Carter

Project Status: Active Smiley Smiley

Project Description:

InternetNZ sponsors NetSafe in a strategic partnership, to the value of $100,000 per year paid as a block grant.

NetSafe is a world-leading advocate and thought-leader in cyber safety. InternetNZ's partnership goes well beyond simple funding: InternetNZ staff and councillors contribute to NetSafe events and vice versa, and Jordan is a regular attendee at NetSafe members' group meetings.

NetSafe gains from InternetNZ's point of view being part of its deliberations; InternetNZ gains from supporting a quality advocate for cyber safety which is one of InternetNZ's objectives.

Project Budget:

$100,000 in 2008/09.

Overall Progress Summary:

In September, Jordan attended the regular members' meeting. A range of topics were discussed, including NetSafe's work on promoting cyber safety, the formation of the new Digital Development Forum, and some instances of call centre events that showed a range of lessons for NetSafe to follow up on. Martin Cocker also outlined the key elements of NetSafe's business plan for the coming year.
