TikTok held its second annual Safer Internet Summit in Cape Town, South Africa, where it introduced several initiatives designed to improve user safety in the African regions. Key updates include new digital literacy training, expanded partnerships to counter misinformation, and the growth of the #SaferTogether campaign, particularly in Nigeria. The campaign focuses on engaging key stakeholders such as parents and teachers. Additionally, TikTok's Global Youth Council has expanded to include young representatives from various Sub-Saharan African countries, highlighting the region's growing importance as digital connectivity increases.
Those include new digital literacy training, regional partnerships to combat misinformation, as well as an expansion of TikTok's #SaferTogether campaign to more African regions, including Nigeria.
As noted, this is an important region for the app, because as more African nations improve their connective capacity, that will see millions more people gain access to platforms like TikTok.
