Attendees also witnessed thought-provoking panel discussions featuring Dr. Renner (aka The Noisy Pediatrician), Dr. Joy Isa, Dr. Abiola Salami, and Yetty Williams on pertinent information about digital parenting, online safety, early years and the role of educators. A youth panel added further depth to the conversation, providing firsthand insights into how young people perceive and interact with technology and social media.

“Today, it takes an e-village to raise a child,” Yetty explains. “This means equipping parents to recognize red flags, guide children toward positive digital interactions, and extend community support into online spaces where children and young adults spend their time.”
