Flow Trinidad joined the in­ter­na­tion­al com­mu­ni­ty in ob­serv­ing Safer In­ter­net Day 2026 yes­ter­day with a re­newed fo­cus on per­son­al dig­i­tal re­spon­si­bil­i­ty un­der the theme: “Smart Tech, Safe Choic­es – Ex­plor­ing the Safe and Re­spon­si­ble Use of AI”.

Safer In­ter­net Day pro­motes safer, more re­spon­si­ble and more in­clu­sive use of on­line tech­nolo­gies. This year’s theme un­der­scores the im­por­tance of eth­i­cal, mind­ful de­ci­sion-mak­ing as smart tech­nolo­gies, in­clud­ing ar­ti­fi­cial in­tel­li­gence, be­come in­creas­ing­ly in­te­grat­ed in­to every­day life.

Flow’s Vice Pres­i­dent and Gen­er­al Man­ag­er, Si­mone Mar­tin-Sul­gan, ad­dressed one hun­dred stu­dents at Fyz­abad Sec­ondary School and said, “as a tele­coms provider, our role is to cre­ate a se­cure, re­silient net­work – one that pro­tects your da­ta, sup­ports safe plat­forms, and helps keep com­mu­ni­ties con­nect­ed. But even the strongest net­work can’t re­place good judg­ment, kind­ness, and in­tegri­ty’. She added, “con­nec­tiv­i­ty is no longer a lux­u­ry – it’s a life­line. And be­hind that con­nec­tion are tele­coms providers whose job is to keep you linked to in­for­ma­tion, op­por­tu­ni­ty, and each oth­er – safe­ly and re­li­ably.”
