The '''1001 Actions for Peace: Dialogue through Sports''' Project is part of the regional campaign "1001 Actions for Dialogue" launched by the [[Anna Lindh Foundation]] (ALF) the Dialogue between Cultures for the enhancement of peaceful coexistence and intercultural dialogue in the Euro-Mediterranean area. The action was generated with the financial support of the [[Anna Lindh Foundation]] and was carried out in collaboration with [[Cyprus EU Association]], [[Peace Players International]] and the [[Environmental Study Centre]].
Insafe is a European network constituted by 30 national Safer Internet Centres in EU member states and in Iceland, Norway and Russia. Every national Centre implements awareness and educational campaigns, runs a helpline, and works closely with youth to ensure an evidence-based, multi-stakeholder approach to creating a better internet.




==The vision of this project==
==Mission statement==
The mission of the Insafe cooperation network is to empower children and young people to use the internet, as well as other online and mobile technologies, positively, safely and effectively. The network calls for shared responsibility for the protection of the rights and needs of citizens, in particular children and youths, by government, educators, parents, media, industry and all other relevant actors. Insafe partners work closely together to share best practice, information and resources. The network interacts with industry, schools and families in the aim of empowering people to bridge the digital divide between home and school and between generations.


==Objectives==
Insafe partners monitor and address emerging trends, while seeking to reinforce the image of the web as a place to learn. They endeavour to raise awareness about reporting harmful or illegal content and services. Through close cooperation between partners and other actors, Insafe aims to raise Internet safety-awareness standards and support the development of information literacy for all.
The project concentrated on:<br>
*Increasing Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot  coaches’ and [[Peace Players International]] (PPI) team members’ skills through Non-Violent Communication (NVC)
*Increasing dialogue among Cypriot  youth during mono- and bi-communal activities through sports
*Emphasizing team spirit and relationship building through interaction
*Empowering youth to visualize a future Cyprus with [[Structured Dialogic Design Process]].


==Awareness Centres==
Each country in the Insafe network has a national Awareness Centre who is responsible for implementing campaigns, coordinating actions, developing synergy at the national level and working in close co-operation with all relevant actors at European, regional and local level.


==Target Groups==
*The project aimed to reach the Turkish Cypriot and the Greek Cypriot youth aged 10-15 both from urban and rural settings (approximately 300 youngsters have been reached; the project also aimed to encourage girls’ participation)
*PeacePlayers International Basketball team members and coaches
*Cypriot Civil Society
*Media

==Helplines==
National helplines respond to the questions and concerns of young people linked to their experiences online or the harmful or illegal online content they encounter.
 
==Hotlines==
 
Hotlines allow members of the public to report illegal content on the internet. The hotlines then deal with the reports by passing them on to the appropriate body (Internet Service Providers, the police, hotlines in other countries) in accordance with their operating rules. This helps to reduce the flow of illegal content and contributes to the effective protection of internet users. Hotlines are coordinated by INHOPE funded by the Safer Internet Programme.
 
==Safer Internet Day==
 
The Insafe network organises Safer Internet Day, which has taken place each February since 2004 and also involves countries outside Europe.
