We've published our cross-cutting analysis of Ofcom's Additional Safety Measures, with our detailed response to the individual measures coming soon.
Who We Are
The OSA Network builds on the expert advisory and convening power established by Carnegie UK during the development and Parliamentary passage of the Online Safety Bill. The Network is led by Maeve Walsh and Professor Lorna Woods OBE and is supported by Reset.
What We Do
We inform, coordinate and support effective, ongoing civil society engagement and advocacy with policymakers, regulators and Parliamentarians during the Online Safety Act (OSA) implementation phase.
Our interests span the whole range of online harms: child protection, terrorism, extremism, violence against women and girls, suicide and self-harm prevention, mental health, hate speech and online abuse, fraud and scams, mis- and disinformation, harms to democracy and threats to our information environment.
How We Work
We provide the following support to the Network:
- An easy-to-navigate repository of reference material related to the OSA, its implementation and its current status - including all the latest Ofcom publications. Head to our Resources section to access this.
- Expert interpretation and analysis on active consultations, legislative and policy developments and research to aid the work of the Network. Find this in our Analysis section.
- A fortnightly newsletter, covering all the latest developments on online safety in the UK and elsewhere. Sign up below!
- Regular opportunities for those with an ongoing interest in the successful implementation of the OSA to connect and collaborate. Get in touch to find out more.
