The topic is children’s safety when online: How are children behaving on the Internet today in Belgium?  What are the risks for children as well as their parents and teachers? What role do teachers and schools play in teaching children about Internet safety?

Our main speaker is Simone van Zuylen, spokesperson for Norton (@norton_be), and also a mother of two children who are currently learning how to safely navigate the exciting, and risky, world of the Internet.  Simone will highlight the recent research on Belgian families’ Internet behavior, and provide practical advice on how parents and teachers can keep their children safe.

As a pension insurer Delta Lloyd Life takes its social responsibility by participating in the debate with the various Belgian pension players. The pension debate shouldn’t just only be conducted in De Wetstraat. An annual pension survey, the Independent Chair of Pension Policy at the K.U. Leuven, the Pension Ambassador Award and the current campaign “Vrouwen Met Pensioen” are just some of its initiatives that seek to put the pension dialogue on the agenda. Take a look at
www.vrouwenmetpensioen.be / www.lapensiondesfemmes.be..

Two female bloggers, Ann Detelder (@AnnMetPensioen) and Claire Cervollo (@PensionDeClaire), were asked to document their month on the minimum pension fee. How did they cope?

And most importantly: which one of the girl geeks win the two iPhones tonight?

The topic is Women and retirement, and our speakers are Delta Lloyd CEO Jan Van Autreve, Belgian politician Miet Smet, and Françoise Goffinet of the Institut égalité femmes et hommes.
