      <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Adam Firman interviews Sonja Ryan, founder of the Carly Ryan Foundation, who shares her personal journey following the tragic loss of her daughter Carly to an online predator. Sonja discusses the foundation's mission to promote online safety for children, the introduction of Carly's Law in Australia, and the importance of education and awareness in preventing online exploitation. The conversation also highlights the challenges posed by big tech companies, the need for preventative measures, and the importance of community support and mental health resources for victims.</p><p>Connect with MSAB on LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/micro-systemation/?viewAsMember=true">https://www.linkedin.com/company/micro-systemation/?viewAsMember=true</a>, Twitter (X) – https://x.com/MSAB_XRY and BlueSky - <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/msabcom.bsky.social">https://bsky.app/profile/msabcom.bsky.social</a></p><p>Be sure to connect with Sonya on LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonya-ryan-oam-3243045b/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonya-ryan-oam-3243045b/</a></p><p>Check out the Carly Ryan Foundation website - <a href="https://www.carlyryanfoundation.com/">https://www.carlyryanfoundation.com/</a></p><p>Sonya is also currently running a national research project that is being conducted by the Australian Institute of Criminology, please see the details below of how you can participate.</p><p><i>We are pleased to offer your school the opportunity to participate in a national research project being conducted by the Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) in partnership with the Carly Ryan Foundation.</i><br /><br /><i>Funded by the National Office for Child Safety through the Australian Attorney General’s Department, this important study aims to evaluate the potential impacts of the Australian Government’s proposed Social Media Minimum Age Restrictions Bill, often referred to as the social media ban.</i><br /><br /><i>What’s involved?</i><br /><br /><i>We are inviting high schools across Australia to take part in a longitudinal, school-based survey involving students aged 11–15 years. The survey will explore students’ opinions, feelings and experiences, in relation to social media and online safety, including  any negative and harmful experiences they have had online.</i><br /><br /><i>What will the survey ask?</i><br /><br /><i>For schools/principals who would like to participate, we will send a copy of the survey and participant information sheet which includes more detail on types of questions (social media platforms used, opinions on the social media ban, experiences of being asked to send nude pictures, ‘deepfake’ images, being tricked into doing things online, and being threatened online). The survey will also provide students with contact details of services for support and advice about negative experiences online.</i><br /><br /><i>To support your school’s involvement, the Carly Ryan Foundation is offering a free, evidence-based online safety presentation to participating schools. These engaging sessions aim to empower students with practical knowledge and strategies to navigate the online world safely.</i><br /><br /><i>Uniquely, these sessions will be personally delivered by Sonya Ryan, Carly’s mum and the founder of the Carly Ryan Foundation.</i><br /><i>Sonya stepped back from regular school presentations several years ago due to her international advocacy and advisory commitments, making this a rare and meaningful opportunity for students to hear directly from her. Her sessions are powerful, evidence-informed, and deeply impactful for young audiences.</i><br /><br /><i>Why participate?</i><br /><i>• Empower students to have their voices heard in a project that could shape future legislation and policy.</i><br /><i>• Support a nationwide effort to better understand young people’s online experiences.</i><br /><i>• Access a rare and free expert-led online safety session delivered by one of Australia’s most respected voices in online safety.</i><br /><br /><i>Participating schools also receive free fact sheets and resources for the school, parents/carers and students, including how to navigate the social media ban, links to counselling/support, and other online safety education, plus an easy-read summary of results from the study.</i><br /><br /><i>Availability for these free presentations are limited. We are currently taking bookings in Term 4 - October 13th to December 12th, 2025.</i><br /><i>We would love to discuss this opportunity with you further and provide additional information about how your school can get involved. Participation is voluntary and anonymous, and appropriate consent and ethical safeguards will be in place.</i></p><p> </p><p> </p>

The survey will explore students’ opinions, feelings and experiences, in relation to social media and online safety, including  any negative and harmful experiences they have had online.</i><br /><br /><i>What will the survey ask?</i><br /><br /><i>For schools/principals who would like to participate, we will send a copy of the survey and participant information sheet which includes more detail on types of questions (social media platforms used, opinions on the social media ban, experiences of being asked to send nude pictures, ‘deepfake’ images, being tricked into doing things online, and being threatened online). The survey will also provide students with contact details of services for support and advice about negative experiences online.</i><br /><br /><i>To support your school’s involvement, the Carly Ryan Foundation is offering a free, evidence-based online safety presentation to participating schools. These engaging sessions aim to empower students with practical knowledge and strategies to navigate the online world safely.</i><br /><br /><i>Uniquely, these sessions will be personally delivered by Sonya Ryan, Carly’s mum and the founder of the Carly Ryan Foundation.</i><br /><i>Sonya stepped back from regular school presentations several years ago due to her international advocacy and advisory commitments, making this a rare and meaningful opportunity for students to hear directly from her. Her sessions are powerful, evidence-informed, and deeply impactful for young audiences.</i><br /><br /><i>Why participate?</i><br /><i>• Empower students to have their voices heard in a project that could shape future legislation and policy.</i><br /><i>• Support a nationwide effort to better understand young people’s online experiences.</i><br /><i>• Access a rare and free expert-led online safety session delivered by one of Australia’s most respected voices in online safety.</i><br /><br /><i>Participating schools also receive free fact sheets and resources for the school, parents/carers and students, including how to navigate the social media ban, links to counselling/support, and other online safety education, plus an easy-read summary of results from the study.</i><br /><br /><i>Availability for these free presentations are limited. We are currently taking bookings in Term 4 - October 13th to December 12th, 2025.</i><br /><i>We would love to discuss this opportunity with you further and provide additional information about how your school can get involved. Participation is voluntary and anonymous, and appropriate consent and ethical safeguards will be in place.</i></p><p> </p><p> </p>
