What We Do
through preventive education, awareness, and community action.
Our Preventive Education Approach
MACSAIL equips children, parents, and educators with the knowledge and tools to recognise, resist, and report
online threats before they escalate.
School-Based Programmes
We deliver structured workshops and curriculum-integrated modules in primary and secondary schools across the UK and Nigeria.
Community Outreach
Our community sessions bring digital safety education to parents, faith groups, and local organisations where families gather.
Resource Development
We create accessible guides, toolkits, and multimedia resources in multiple formats for diverse audiences and literacy levels.
Policy & Advocacy
We work with policymakers and tech companies to advocate for stronger child protection standards and platform accountability.
Our Focus Areas
We address the five most critical online safety challenges facing children and teenagers today.
Online Grooming
We educate children and adults about how predators build trust online, equipping them to recognise manipulation tactics and report suspicious behaviour before harm occurs.
- Our Approach
- Age-appropriate workshops for children on recognising grooming tactics
- Training for parents on monitoring digital relationships
- Partnerships with schools to embed safety awareness in curricula
Sextortion
MACSAIL addresses the rising threat of sextortion through awareness programmes that teach young people about the dangers of sharing intimate content and how to respond if targeted.
- Our Approach
- Youth-focused awareness sessions on the risks of image sharing
- Guidance for victims on reporting and recovery pathways
- Collaboration with law enforcement to support investigations
Cyberbullying
Our programmes help schools and families tackle cyberbullying by fostering a culture of respect, building resilience in young people, and providing clear frameworks for intervention.
- Our Approach
- Anti-bullying workshops and peer mentoring programmes
- Resources for schools on creating supportive digital environments
- Mental health support referrals for affected young people
Misinformation
We build critical thinking skills in young people so they can identify false or misleading content, understand how algorithms amplify misinformation, and become responsible digital citizens.
- Our Approach
- Media literacy workshops teaching fact-checking techniques
- Interactive exercises on identifying fake news and deepfakes
- Teacher training on integrating media literacy across subjects
Online Radicalisation
MACSAIL works to prevent young people from being drawn into extremist ideologies online through counter-narrative education, critical engagement, and community resilience building.
- Our Approach
- Counter-narrative programmes in schools and community groups
- Training for educators to identify early signs of radicalisation
- Community dialogue sessions promoting tolerance and understanding
Online Radicalisation
We educate young people about the dangers of deliberately false or manipulated information shared online to mislead people. Children and teenagers often encounter content designed to deceive, influence opinions, or create confusion.
- Our Approach
- Lessons that explain how disinformation campaigns are created and spread online
- Practical activities showing how to spot manipulated images, videos, and misleading headlines
- Guidance for teachers on helping students analyze sources and verify information across different subjects
