Under the LoI, both organizations will collaborate on capacity-building programs, policy dialogues, public awareness campaigns, and the adoption of global best practices for digital well-being. The partnership also seeks to facilitate open discussions on content governance and regulatory compliance, ensuring that Pakistan’s digital environment aligns with both local values and international standards.
PTA Chairman Maj Gen (R) Hafeez ur Rehman emphasized the authority’s commitment to protecting vulnerable users, stating that the initiative reflects a dedicated push to secure a safer internet for children and young Pakistanis. Meanwhile, Meta’s involvement underscores a shared vision for balanced content moderation and constructive dialogue on safety practices.
