The Australian Government is protecting young Australians at a critical stage of their development, through world-first social media age restrictions taking effect on 10 December. 

To assist with this, eSafety has launched a comprehensive package of new resources to help parents, carers, educators and young people prepare for the social media age restrictions.

The new resources explain what is changing, why it matters, and how to support young people through the transition. eSafety will also begin a series of 43 live webinars across Australian time zones to answer questions from the public and provide additional details.

Find information in this hub to help you understand and prepare for the change.
