In 2026, the competitive advantage in AI will no longer come from model speed or scale—it will come from trust. As Southeast Asia and Korea accelerate enterprise AI adoption amid fragmented regulatory landscapes (from Singapore's FEAT to Korea's AI Basic Act), the CIO's mandate has shifted from deployment to defense. “AI integrity”—the convergence of data provenance, bias mitigation, explainability, and ethical resilience—is now a board-level risk. For heads of compliance and data science, the question is no longer “Can we scale AI?” but “Can we certify its integrity?” Without it, you face regulatory fines, model drift, and reputational collapse. In this PodChats for FutureCIO, we are joined by Lee Anstiss, Regional Director, Southeast Asia and Korea at Infoblox, to hopefully get insights and tips on how to safeguard AI integrity.1. Do Asia's CIOs and CISOs know exactly which AI models are running across all our business units—or is shadow AI already creating integrity risks we cannot see?2. Given the fragmented state of each model's regulatory status, what options are there for CIOs as they navigate fragmented rules with fragmented data?3. In your view, are enterprises in Asia prioritizing raw accuracy over an “integrity scorecard” that includes bias, explainability, and robustness—and if so, are CIOs trusting models that are fast but not fair?4. Based on current technologies and practices, can CIOs trace every piece of training data, including synthetic data, back to its source? Do organisations have blind spots where hidden bias or poisoned inputs could enter?5. Can CIOs test their production AI for bias against local languages and cultural norms in each market? Can they produce an audit trail for any regulator who asks?6. If a regulator demands proof of real-time bias disclosure tomorrow, is there a way for enterprises to have automated logs mapped to specific legal articles?7. Should organisations maintain a human-in-the-loop for high-stakes decisions, with override logs that feed back into retraining? How risky is using the discipline of oversight as a checkbox?8. Our topic is “tips on how to safeguard AI integrity” Can you share some of the most common or practical tips for CIOs, heads of AI, for ensuring or safeguarding AI integrity.
In this episode, I continue my series exploring what Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews teach us about domestic abuse and the impact on children. This time, I'm discussing the research report Rethinking Domestic Abuse in Child Protection: Responding Differently and some of the important questions it raises about how we respond to families experiencing domestic abuse. In this episode I discuss: Why the research argues that child protection responses often focus too heavily on the non-abusing parent, while those causing harm receive comparatively little meaningful engagement. How taking a whole-family and intersectional approach can help practitioners better understand the complex realities families face, including poverty, trauma, discrimination, mental ill-health and social isolation. Why safeguarding professionals need to look beyond individual incidents and recognise the cumulative patterns of harm that emerge across agencies over time. The importance of building trust and relationships with families while maintaining professional curiosity and a clear focus on reducing risk. Why prevention matters, and how earlier intervention and stronger relationships could help reduce harm before families reach crisis point. Are you interested in becoming an independent reviewer?

In this episode I am exploring the latest NSPCC Learning from Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews publication 'Domestic abuse: learning from case reviews' and the powerful messages it contains for everyone working with children and families. Domestic abuse is often viewed through the lens of adult relationships, but Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews continue to remind us that children are victims in their own right. In this episode I explore: Why domestic abuse rarely exists in isolation how this increase risk for children. How coercive and controlling behaviour can remain hidden, leading professionals to misunderstand victims' responses and underestimate the impact on children. Why children's voices can become lost within safeguarding processes, even when professionals are actively involved with a family. The importance of building a picture across agencies, sharing information effectively and maintaining professional curiosity when concerns persist.

Justice Minister Naomi Long, SDLP leader Claire Hanna and Ind MLA Doug Beattie discuss
Episode Summary Most people believe they know how to use AI—but are they simply treating ChatGPT like a replacement for Google? In this episode of The EdTech Podcast, Philippa Wraithmell speaks with Joshua, Co-founder and CEO of Mindstone, about what genuine AI competency looks like and why successful AI transformation depends far more on people, behaviour and organisational culture than technology. Joshua shares his journey from launching his first company as a teenager to co-founding SuperAwesome, the child-safety technology company later acquired by Epic Games. He explains how this experience shaped his thinking about digital safeguarding, parental responsibility and the need to help children engage with technology gradually, rather than attempting to protect them through blanket bans. The conversation explores why simply inserting AI into existing tasks rarely delivers meaningful value. Joshua argues that the real opportunity lies in changing how we approach work: asking AI to question us, challenge our assumptions, identify blind spots and support our thinking rather than outsourcing it. They also examine the widening AI skills divide. As experienced users build years of personal context, workflows and AI agents, those who delay may find themselves increasingly disadvantaged. This has major implications for workplaces, schools and universities—particularly when many institutions still respond to AI through prohibition rather than education. From leadership and workforce transformation to safeguarding, sustainability misconceptions and the future of employment, this episode asks an important question: are we preparing people to use AI well, or simply giving them access to the tools? Key Topics What genuine AI competency looks like Why most people are using generative AI incorrectly Using AI to enhance rather than replace human thinking Why AI transformation is a people and behaviour-change challenge The responsibility of senior leaders during AI adoption The growing inequality between experienced and inexperienced AI users Why banning AI in schools can encourage secretive and inappropriate use Building safer, age-appropriate pathways into AI and social media The role of parents, governments and technology companies in safeguarding Misconceptions surrounding AI's environmental impact How AI agents are changing productivity and cognitive workload Preparing people for disruption across employment and education Chapters 00:00 – Welcome and Introduction to Joshua Joshua introduces Mindstone and its work helping non-technical teams use generative AI more effectively. 01:04 – Building a Business at Sixteen From creating websites for family connections to managing a team of students building technology for private banks. 02:08 – Early Start-up Lessons Joshua reflects on a failed start-up, turning down investment and the lessons that led to his next venture. 03:17 – Building SuperAwesome and Protecting Children Online How SuperAwesome developed advertising, privacy and verified parental-consent technology for global children's brands. 04:47 – Safeguarding, Regulation and Parental Responsibility Why Joshua believes governments must avoid removing parental agency when introducing online-safety regulation. 06:46 – Education, Curiosity and Challenging Authority Joshua discusses his school experiences, constant questioning and learning across six different school models. 10:04 – Why Joshua Founded Mindstone The transition from Epic Games into education, learning science and the future of workforce skills. 13:07 – When Skills Expire Before Degrees Are Completed Why the declining half-life of workplace skills raises fundamental questions about traditional education. 14:04 – ChatGPT Changes the Direction of Mindstone How generative AI transformed both the learning process and the skills likely to matter in the future. 15:28 – Why Most People Do Not Know How to Use AI Joshua explains why frequent ChatGPT use does not necessarily equal AI competency. 17:24 – ChatGPT Is Not a Search Engine Why treating AI as a Google replacement represents one of its least valuable applications. 18:17 – AI, Water and Energy Misconceptions A discussion about environmental claims, data centres and the importance of understanding evidence and scale. 20:45 – Stop Asking AI for Answers Joshua shares a simple technique: ask AI to question you, uncover blind spots and strengthen your thinking. 22:09 – Treating AI as a Conversation Why users should refine, challenge and continue the interaction rather than abandoning AI after one poor response. 24:10 – AI as a Digital Chief of Staff How accumulated context allows AI to understand preferences, decisions and working patterns more effectively. 25:04 – The Emerging AI Inequality Gap Why users who have spent years building AI systems and context may gain a compounding advantage. 26:54 – Why School AI Bans Are Failing How prohibition can drive AI use underground and encourage learners to outsource rather than demonstrate their thinking. 27:23 – Making AI the Baseline for Learning Why students should be expected to show how they improved upon AI-generated work rather than pretend the technology does not exist. 30:47 – AI Transformation Begins with Leadership Why executive teams must understand and use AI before asking the rest of an organisation to change. 33:11 – AI Is a People Problem The case for moving AI transformation from the chief technology officer to the chief people officer. 33:40 – Why Online Training Alone Does Not Change Behaviour How live demonstrations, personalised learning and practical workplace applications support meaningful adoption. 36:19 – Champions, Laggards and Organisational Change The role of internal champions, visible success stories and sustained momentum. 38:05 – Reclaiming Time for Meaningful Work How AI can reduce administrative burden and allow people to focus on the work they value most. 39:12 – The Safeguarding Knife Edge Joshua considers how children can gradually gain independence while parents retain appropriate visibility and support. 42:38 – The Problem with Digital Cliffs Why completely restricting children until a set age may leave them unprepared for the realities of online life. 44:38 – Technology Cannot Replace Parenting Lessons from SuperAwesome about parental consent, responsibility and the limitations of technical safeguards. 47:44 – Jobs, Robotics and the Next Decade Joshua shares an optimistic but honest view of significant employment disruption and rapid technological progress. 49:15 – AI Agents and 'Brain Fry' Why delegating routine work to AI can leave humans completing only the most cognitively demanding tasks. 50:48 – Becoming More Human in an AI World The opportunity to rethink work, protect time and make greater space for creativity, relationships and life beyond productivity.

How effective will new UK laws be at protecting children online? Ed Balls and George Osborne hear a question from Natalie Fleet, the Minister for Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls. They discuss the technology that can help, the importance of legislation keeping pace with risks, and the legal decision that made social media platforms more likely to host misleading content.Plus, why is the government now prioritising inflation over low unemployment? Is it possible to tackle them both at the same time? And what could a future Prime Minister do towards this? Ed and George assess the history and economics behind it.They also discuss the importance of historical education as a politician and an economist. Ed talks about the importance of learning from mistakes of the past, and George recalls how two paintings in No 11 Downing Street paid tribute to an influential 1925 dinner between then-Chancellor Winston Churchill and economist John Maynard Keynes.And finally, how do Ed and George feel about comedians rarely impersonating them?

The Pope's Encyclical on AI is well worth reading. It's not only about the perils and risks of technology, it's really a manifesto about power.

Safeguarding GodlinessGod's Blueprint for a Healthy Church1 Timothy 5:17-24Billy PoeWestside Chapel | May 24, 2026
As lineworkers and pilots work "inside the wires" from helicopters, drones could soon be a part of this shielded airspace. Mike Starner of the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) and Heather Moran of Level Ascent Solutions explored the Federal Aviation Administration's proposed rules regulating the use of drones. This audio story, authored by Mike Starner of the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) and Heather Moran of Level Ascent Solutions, was featured in the January 2026 issue of T&D World magazine. Their story highlights safety concerns around rights-of-way and the need for rapid communication and coordination. It also shares how technologies can help if implemented with input from pilots, drone operators and utility safety professionals. Listeners will hear why preserving human judgment and teamwork is essential as drone inspections and Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations expand. It will also focus on why collaboration, standardized protocols and training are critical to safely modernize inspections above the power line. For more information, read the article on the T&D World website.

Is the AI job apocalypse a marketing strategy and not an economic forecast?It's nuanced, and today we tap into first wave stats for clarity.Correlation does Not imply Causation. The divergence is real, but timing also coincides with the Fed's aggressive rate hikes and sustained tightening. That said, AI is likely to reshape the labor market—not just in the number of jobs, but in the types of roles that exist - after giants clean up the BLOAT.People think the AI job crisis is about technology, but it's really about wealth inequality. - Scott GallowayPURE FACT. Every generation has its version of this story.The one where machines come for the jobs.Where the future arrives faster than people can adapt.Where the world you knew is about to end.This time around, the story has better PR and a much bigger budget — but underneath, it's the same script.I'm not saying this is nothing to worry about - we all feel the speed. In fact, the current evolution of AI is 300X faster than the Industrial Revolution. So….here's what I keep coming back to so we can understand the middle phase of the tech boom we are living through. The loudest voices warning us about the AI job apocalypse are also the people who profit most when we believe them.Anthropic's CEO says half of all entry-level white-collar jobs will be wiped out in five years.Elon says no job will be needed.Sam Altman wrote, before ChatGPT even launched, that the price of human labor was about to fall toward zero.Notice the pattern?The people predicting an extinction-level event are the same people building the asteroid and selling tickets to watch.We've Been Here BeforeThis panic isn't new.The Nobel-winning economist Robert Shiller has shown that fears about machines replacing humans helped fuel economic downturns in the 1800s.Science fiction later convinced people that automation caused the Great Depression.Computer panic deepened the recession of the early ‘80s.His point was simple.The damage doesn't usually come from the technology itself.It comes from the story we wrap around it.People feel pain from a normal recession, blame the machines, get more pessimistic, pull back further, and the story becomes the thing that creates the outcome it warned us about.That's exactly what I think is happening right now.AI is becoming a convenient cover story for layoffs that are really about over-hiring, inflation, and tariffs.Look at the numbers.U.S. tech employment grew from 8.7 million in 2020 to 9.6 million in 2023, then went flat.Not great.Not the apocalypse either.Meta's 10% cut is just bringing the company back to its 2021 size.Microsoft's 7% cut still leaves it 47% bigger than before the pandemic.Tesla announced it was hiring more, then laid off 10% of its workforce a month later — because of weak sales, not robots.This isn't the prelude to the end of work.It's a low-hire, low-fire labor market.That's it.Three Ways This Resurgence Plays OutScenario one: the bubble pops.The Mag 10 now make up 40% of the S&P.AI stocks have driven the majority of the market's returns since ChatGPT launched.If AI sneezes, the rest of the economy gets the flu.And when that recession comes, we'll blame AI for it — even though, historically, layoffs come in recessionary bursts, not the moment a new technology arrives.Scenario two: AI delivers, just slower than they say.When something gets dramatically cheaper, we don't use less of it.We find a million new uses for it.That's Jevons paradox.When the spreadsheet launched in 1979, everyone said accountants were finished.Instead, the profession quadrupled over the next 40 years.The same pattern shows up everywhere computers got adopted heavily — employment grew faster, not slower.Programmers today are coding less and thinking bigger.They've gone from construction workers to architects.The real question for any knowledge profession isn't “will AI replace this?”It's “is the human demand for analysis, judgment, and oversight elastic?”I think it is.And I think we're about to discover how much demand has been quietly waiting for the cost of execution to drop.Scenario three: the disruption outruns us.This is the scary one.AI hits every sector at once, no policy response, full collapse of the recovery cycle.But here's the part most people miss.Real societal upheaval almost never comes from unemployment.It comes from people who are working hard and still falling behind.From the loss of economic dignity.If that sounds familiar, trust your gut.We're already living in it.What's Really Going OnInside Silicon Valley, the mood is dark.People talk seriously about a “permanent underclass” and a “limited window” to build wealth before robots take over.I think this is a shared hallucination.The same people obsessed with AI's rapid capabilities are ignoring everything else about how economies, labor markets, and human demand actually work.And here's the tell.Only Americans earning over $200,000 a year see AI as a net positive.That's not a fact about AI.That's a fact about who has access to opportunity in this country.The AI jobs panic is just the newest scene in a much older story about wealth inequality.The real disruption isn't going to come from AI.It's going to come from the public finally noticing that the people warning us about the fire are the same ones selling the smoke detectors.The AI job apocalypse isn't an economic forecast.It's a marketing campaign.We're not watching the end of work.We're watching the monetization of fear.Life is so rich. Especially when you realize your inherent creative power and the evolution of our society has bright day's ahead of us. Not the doom - change, and fast? Yes, but the Universal Law of Order is always flowing from chaos to order. Your thoughts? Here's MY thoughts on AI brought to LIFE for REAL SOLUTIONS. How I view AI.....within the SPACE of the LIGHT Between Oracle Healing Journey.“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” - Viktor FranklThe Light Between is the conscious, sovereign light that we must maintain between our stimuli and responses. This is the light of discernment, wonder, and creativity - the light where humans truly thrive at our full capacity, rather than merely coping.I'm building a movement to advocate for preserving this vital light. Safeguarding this Light Between will enable the mindful and beneficial integration of AI into our lives.It is the wellspring of our agency, our ability to thoughtfully shape our responses to the world. Protecting and nourishing this Light is paramount as we navigate the increasing presence of artificial intelligence in our lives.In Closing…So if this lit up your heart and minds view of all the bright potential of transforming world of opportunity, then I'd love for you to experience the LIGHT BETWEEN ORACLE JOURNEY + INTUITIVE READINGS.

In this episode of the Determined Truth Podcast, we continue our important conversation on abuse in the church—focusing on power dynamics, safeguarding, and how churches can become truly safe environments. What happens when leadership power is misused? How can churches protect the vulnerable while still fostering trust and community? And what practical steps can leaders take today to prevent abuse before it happens? We explore: Why power differentials matter—and why ignoring them is dangerous How lack of accountability enables abuse and silences victims The difference between claiming safety and actually creating a safe culture Key safeguarding practices every church should implement immediately The importance of clear policies, background checks, and ongoing training Why churches must partner with trained professionals in abuse and trauma care How to stay both wise and discerning without becoming cynical or fearful This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply needed for pastors, church leaders, and anyone who cares about the health of the Church. If we want to reflect Christ well, we must be willing to confront hard truths—and take real action. Listen now and join the movement to equip the Church to be the Church.

Glen McGugan, Ph.D., Director of ASM's Mechanism Discovery Unit, discusses how curiosity‑driven research—from parasite virulence to CRISPR and complex microbial systems—drives tomorrow's breakthroughs. Ashley's Biggest Takeaways Mechanism discovery,encompasses all of the foundational basic research across the microbial sciences and is essential for all advances in microbial science. Many transformative technologies (e.g., CRISPR) originated from curiosity-driven, basic research rather than immediate practical goals. McGugan's experience as a Program Officer at NIH provided him with a broad perspective on the research pipeline, from basic science to clinical trials, and highlighted the importance of supporting early-career scientists. Developing therapeutics for parasitic diseases is particularly challenging due to complex life cycles and limited financial incentives for pharmaceutical companies; much of the progress relies on government and philanthropic funding. ASM's Mechanism Discovery Unit serves as a neutral hub to convene interdisciplinary stakeholders, foster collaboration, and advance fundamental research. Safeguarding future breakthroughs in the microbial sciences depends on the involvement of and connections between researchers, policymakers, funders and industry partners to close gaps between discovery, implementation and impact.

In this episode I'm joined by Sean Monaghan, founder of Safer Now, whose route into safeguarding practice started in a youth centre in North Birmingham and took him through community violence intervention, hospital-based trauma response, and a recurring question: so what? We talk about what it actually takes to change practice on the ground, why skills training has to outlast the day it's delivered, the commodification of practice frameworks, and why measuring meaning matters more than hitting KPIs. This is one of those conversations that could have gone on for hours.If you're interested in training for your local authority, organisation or team, I work with a range of organisations across the UK delivering skills-focused safeguarding and social work training.

Who would have thought that children can be victims of identity theft? The sad truth is that kids become identity theft victims more often than we realize. If you're concerned about the possibility of your child becoming a victim, keep listening, because we provide some helpful ways to safeguard their identities from thieves.

Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union Transcript: Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday from the Making Money Personal podcast. Child identity theft isn't something we often think about. However, it occurs more often than you might expect. According to Javelin's Child Identity Fraud Report, child identity theft affects 1.25 million kids every year, which translates to about one in 50 children in America. When you see those numbers, it becomes apparent that we must act now to protect the children in our lives. What Is Child Identity Theft? According to the Federal Trade Commission, “Child identity theft happens when someone takes a child's sensitive personal information and uses it to get services or benefits or to commit fraud. They might use your child's Social Security number, name and address, or date of birth.” Child identity theft happens for a multitude of reasons. The perpetrator could use this information to open a bank or credit card account, apply for government benefits, or even sign up for a utility service or rent a place to live. Much like other types of identity theft, it can be easy for this type of identity theft to remain undetected for months or even years. How It Happens As with adults, identity theft against children can be perpetrated through a variety of sources. Below we have listed some ways that children's personally identifiable information (PII) could be exposed and then potentially used for fraudulent purposes. Data Breaches. Kids' personal identifying information is in so many places, and nothing is completely secure. Schools, doctors' offices, and your home can all experience security breaches. After a child's confidential information or PII is exposed, whether the data breach incident is accidental or with malicious intent, the security breach cannot be undone. Often, criminals will wait to utilize confiscated information for their own purposes. Familial Fraud. Three out of four cases of child identity theft come from those close to the victim, in what is known as familial fraud, and often occur in correlation with other forms of abuse, according to Javelin's Child Identity Fraud Report. Kids are often more trusting than adults, especially when they know the person who is asking for their information. Unscrupulous individuals at times utilize the PII of their own children, or children they know through family or friends, for their own benefit. Phishing. These scams don't just target adults. Children that use the internet without parental supervision have a higher chance of giving their sensitive information to a scammer, not realizing that they are being tricked. Kids don't always know not to share their birth date, place of birth, and passwords with strangers or online “friends.” Hacking. As more children have their own devices, and often multiple devices (computers, tablets, and phones), hacking becomes more common. Hackers can gain access to the information stored on these devices and can also log in to social media accounts, which they could use to attempt to defraud friends and family, acting as your child. Warning Signs of Child Identity Theft Regardless of the way the information makes it into the hands of identity thieves, below are some warning signs that your child's identity may have been stolen: Unexpected Mail. Your child begins receiving credit card offers, collection notices, or bills under their name. Collection Calls. You or your family members begin to receive calls from collection agencies for unpaid bills in your child's name. Government Benefits Denials. Your child is denied government benefits because they are already being claimed, when this is not the case. IRS Notifications. The IRS contacts you or your child about your child owing taxes or indicates that their SSN was used on another tax return. How You Can Help Protect Your Children The best way to help protect your family from identity theft is to be proactive in helping to prevent it. The most effective preventative measure is education. This type of education will not only help protect them now, but it is information that will benefit them as adults. Keep Important Documents in a Secure Location. Keep your family's personal identifying information in a secure place in your home, be selective about what services you sign up for, and don't give your information unless it is necessary. Make sure that any important documents in your home, such as Social Security cards, birth certificates, or other legal documents, are stored securely to avoid compromise. Share Personal Information with Caution. Assess the need before listing your child's Social Security number (SSN) on forms. Schools and school break camps shouldn't be using it as the only unique ID for each child. If an SSN is required, don't be afraid to ask if it's ok to share only the last 4 digits of your child's SSN. Educate Your Child. Talk to your child about the importance of privacy and the dangers of sharing personal information online and offline. Ensure that your child isn't sharing personal information like their birthdate, address, or school on social media, other online platforms, or with other individuals without your permission. Secure Your Mail. If you're sending or receiving mail with personal details, especially if those personal details pertain to your children, consider using a mailbox that locks or opt for electronic delivery. Retrieve your mail daily as soon as possible. Consider opting into the U.S. Postal Service's “Informed Delivery” service. It's free to sign up, and it will provide a Daily Digest email that will preview your mail and packages scheduled to arrive soon, along with an image of each of your incoming letter-sized mail pieces. This will help you stay vigilant if any missing mail never arrives. Discard Unnecessary Documents with Care. If you have postal mail or other important documents that you no longer need to keep on file, make sure that you use a cross-cut shredder to securely destroy the paperwork. Criminals can engage in "dumpster diving" to retrieve discarded paperwork with personal information, potentially compromising you and your family. Monitor Your Child's Personal Information. If you have Triangle's Better Checking, you and your family are covered with dark web monitoring. This benefit monitors your personal information and any registered credentials. You have the option to add additional credentials in your secure account as well; you could consider adding your child's SSN or other identifiers to monitor any potential compromise or exposure on the dark web. Child identity theft can have long-lasting consequences, potentially impacting your child's credit and future opportunities. By remaining vigilant, educating your child, and keeping a close eye on his or her personal information, you can help better protect your child from the impacts of identity theft. While these recommendations are designed to help protect your children's identities, they can apply to your own personal information as well. Remember to communicate with caution and treat all personal information with care, whether it belongs to you or your loved ones.

#322: Safeguarding in the Age of AI: Who's Responsible? In this engaging conversation, Sponsored by Hachette Learning Academy, Laura Knight discusses her extensive experience in education and her focus on integrating technology effectively within the classroom. She emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to EdTech, addressing not only the pedagogical aspects but also the emotional and social well-being of students. The discussion delves into the challenges of safeguarding in the digital age, the significance of scenario-based learning, and the ongoing debate surrounding screen time and digital engagement. Laura advocates for a shift in educational practices to better prepare students for the complexities of the digital world, highlighting the need for self-regulation, digital literacy, and a collaborative effort between parents and educators. The conversation concludes with insights from Laura's white paper, which outlines three key pillars for fostering digital responsibility in children: capability, conscience, and courage. Key Takeaways Laura Knight emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to EdTech. Safeguarding in the digital age is a shared responsibility among educators and parents. Screens themselves are neutral; the focus should be on the content accessed. Teaching self-regulation and digital literacy is crucial for young people. Generational differences impact how technology is perceived and used. The need for change in educational approaches is urgent and necessary. Digital ecosystems significantly influence children's learning and relationships. Peer support among parents can enhance digital literacy discussions. The three pillars of digital literacy are capability, conscience, and courage. Education must prepare children to thrive in a digital world with integrity.

Naz Shah has been the MP for Bradford West since 2015, after a battle with George Galloway's Respect Party, but her personal journey into politics is remarkable. Naz was born in Bradford but sent to Pakistan at the age of 12, to escape the attentions of her mother's abuser. Then when she was 20 her mother was convicted of his murder. For years Naz looked after her younger siblings, while campaigning alongside Southall Black Sisters for her mother's release and was instrumental in achieving a reduction in her mother's jail term. She joins presenter Kylie Pentelow to discuss her story as she publishes her memoir Honoured: Survival, Strength and My Path to Politics.Have you heard about the ‘alpine divorce' trend? Women on social media are describing it as an extreme style of breakup in which a man leaves his partner stranded during a hike or outdoor adventure. Jo Hemmings, a Behavioural Psychologist and Relationship Counsellor, and broadcaster and author Mary-Ann Ochota discuss this troubling new relationship trend and how women can feel safe while navigating the outdoors.The Anti-discimination charity Kick it Out has received 131 reports of sexist incidents at football matches from the start of the men's season until the end of February this year. That's more than double than for the same period last season, with comments to female fans including, 'What do you know about football? You should be in the kitchen getting your husband's tea." We discuss why this sexism is increasing and what can be done about it with BBC Sport senior journalist Sally Freedman, who's written a book about her expereinces, and Sarah Collins, head of Safeguarding at Stockport County Football Club. In the new play, John Proctor is the Villain, high school girls in small town America are studying The Crucible, Arthur Miller's allegorical portrayal of the Salem witch trials. The play takes place just as the #MeToo movement catches fire, and comes close to home. As the Broadway hit premieres in the UK at London's Royal Court Theatre, playwright Kimberly Belflower and director Danya Taymor join Kylie to discuss viewing Miller's classic through a #MeToo lens.

On this episode of Fostering Change, Rob Scheer is joined by Karen Segal, founder of Photo Safe, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting what many children in foster care often miss: photographs and personal memories.For most families, childhood photos are a given. They capture milestones, friendships, and the small moments that help us understand who we are and where we come from. But for many children experiencing foster care, frequent moves and disrupted connections mean those memories are rarely preserved.Photo Safe was founded to close that gap. Through a network of volunteer photographers, the organization has provided more than 60,000 professionally taken and framed photographs to youth connected to foster care and their families.At the heart of Photo Safe's work is a commitment to safety and confidentiality. Every image is securely archived and preserved so children can access their memories safely now and decades into the future.In this conversation, Rob and Karen explore why photographs matter for identity, how preserving childhood moments can help young people build a sense of belonging, and why something as simple as a picture can become a powerful anchor in a child's life.Episode HighlightsWhy childhood photographs play a vital role in identity and emotional developmentThe often-overlooked reality is that many youth in foster care grow up without documented memoriesHow Photo Safe protects images through secure archival systems and strict confidentialityThe lasting emotional impact of framed photographs and preserved milestonesHow preserving memories helps youth maintain a connection to their own storyAbout the GuestKaren Segal is the founder of Photo Safe, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving childhood photographs for youth in foster care.

Breaking The Silence with Dr Gregory Williams Integrity, Impact, and the Fight Against Human Trafficking Guest, Keith Grounsell, a 28-year law enforcement veteran, two-time Chief of Police, former DEA Special Agent, international police advisor, entrepreneur, speaker, and multi-book author This Week's Guest will be Keith Grounsell. Keith is a veteran law enforcement leader with nearly 30 years of experience at the city, county, federal and international levels. A former deep undercover narcotics officer and 2-time Chief of Police. He is the author of more than 12 books. You can find all of Keith's book at his author page on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Keith-P.-Grounsell/author/B08J456MMW?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1773710088&sr=1-1&shoppingPortalEnabled=true On this episode of Breaking the Silence, host, Dr. Gregory Williams interview former DEA special agent and author Keith Groundsel to discuss the harrowing global epidemic of human trafficking and the necessity of principled leadership. The conversation explores the transition from making an income to making an impact, while exposing the ruthless mechanics of cartels and organ harvesting. Groundsel emphasizes that education and unwavering integrity are the primary tools for protecting the next generation and restoring law and order. The Philosophy of Personal Impact Dr. Williams, reflecting on his own battle with Lou Gehrig's disease, posits that the value of a life is measured by its impact on others rather than financial success. He argues that even small, consistent acts of presence and encouragement—such as a security guard's daily greeting—can provide the foundational support necessary for a trauma survivor to reclaim their life. This "steady flow of encouragement" is presented as a vital deterrent to the isolation that often precedes exploitation. Exposing the Human Trafficking Industry The discussion shifts to the "mission-driven" work of Groundsel, particularly his observations in post-earthquake Haiti where over half a million children became vulnerable to traffickers. He reveals the horrifying reality of organ harvesting, where victims are "disposed of like a crop" once they are no longer useful for labor or sexual exploitation. Groundsel notes that human trafficking has evolved into a $170 billion annual industry, often intertwined with narco-terrorism and elite circles that seek to normalize predatory behavior. Leadership Under Fire and Political Integrity Groundsel shares his experiences as a two-time Chief of Police, highlighting the friction between effective law enforcement and political optics. He describes being terminated for "making a town look like it had a trafficking problem" after successful undercover stings that snared prominent citizens. He maintains that 95% of all crimes are linked to drugs and trafficking, and that true leadership requires a foundation of integrity that refuses to turn a blind eye to corruption, regardless of the personal or political cost. Safeguarding the Next Generation To combat these threats, Groundsel has authored several books, including the Character and Confidence series for children and Shattered Chains for adults. He advocates for "proactive parenting," which involves being a constant, visible presence in a child's life and establishing "no-questions-asked" safety protocols for teenagers. He concludes that while technology and cartels have changed the landscape of crime, the fundamental solution remains rooted in accountability, border security, and the courage to stand for the truth. The dialogue serves as a sobering reminder that while evil exists in the form of ruthless cartels and systemic corruption, it can be countered through individual integrity and collective vigilance. By prioritizing impact over income and education over ignorance, communities can begin to "break the silence" and protect the most vulnerable members of society.

According to Check Point Research and Reuters, cyberattacks on U.S. utilities in 2024 increased nearly 70% compared to the year before, leading to an average of 69 attacks every week. In 2025, the trend continued, in the U.S and globally. What can water utilities do to protect themselves from these digital threats? The answer is a nuanced one, as the challenges extend beyond outdated software and ageing infrastructure. Most water utilities globally are undergoing rapid digital transformation to respond to higher demands from communities, councils and authorities. This has opened more opportunities for cyberthreats, driving more challenges for cybersecurity in Operational Technology (OT) environments. Unlike conventional Information Technology (IT) systems, OT systems directly control pumps, valves, and treatment processes. An attack on OT can have immediate, real-world consequences for water quality, safety and public health. The OT environment at Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD) is a success story as it protects one of the largest regional water and wastewater utilities in the U.S., servicing more than 20 counties and cities and 1.5 million people. Thanks to its signature program of embedded visibility, governance and consequence-driven planning, it can serve as a blueprint for water utilities globally. Today we'll talk about how to apply this cybersecurity blueprint with Ben Stirling, Director, Cybersecurity & OT at Jacobs, and Roger Caslow, Chief Information Security Officer, Hampton Roads Sanitation District.
Modern life is increasingly dependent on the internet, but with dependence comes vulnerability. Popular websites enable fraud, disinformation, and harassment. Although anyone on the internet can be at risk, particular age demographics, including children and the elderly, are exposed to threats ranging from social media risks to online harassment to much worse. Federal efforts to legislate solutions have met with mixed success. State governments have begun to address these questions on their own terms, with some enacting age verification laws and others bringing lawsuits against internet companies. How then should we think about public safety in the present internet ecosystem, particularly for vulnerable populations like children and the elderly? Is legislation desirable or even possible? And what does the future hold? Join our panelists, all advocates on the front lines, as they discuss these issues.
