<p style="line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12pt">In Australia and overseas, concern about
‘sexting’ among young people has been widespread, and discussions have tended
to focus on the ‘risks’ and issues new technologies are seen to produce. This
symposium presents the findings from six studies by researchers in Australia
and England working across the fields of law, criminology, media, gender, and
education. These researchers have adopted a variety of methods to try to better
understand and unpack the issues around ‘sexting’. The symposium is intended to
provide space for questions and discussion between researchers and stakeholders
in this area, and thus to help inform wider public debates and responses to the
issues around young people and ‘sexting’ in Australia.<span> <br></span></span></p><p style="line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12pt"><span><br></span></span></p>
