Mirabela Grădinaru, the partner of Romanian president Nicușor Dan, presented the "Romania in Light" project during a panel within the NATO Summit in Ankara. The project focuses on protecting children in the context of technological development and educating them in an environment where the virtual world supports learning and development.

During the talks, Mirabela Grădinaru stated that technology is a valuable tool for education and connectivity, but that without guidance and protective measures, it can become harmful.

In her remarks, she also highlighted the role of governments, technology companies, and parents in protecting children in the digital environment so that they can safely benefit from the advantages of new technologies, the cited source said.

"Romania's first lady, Mirabela Grădinaru, participated in the program dedicated to the partners of heads of state and government, organized by the first lady of the Republic of Türkiye, Emine Erdoğan, on the sidelines of the NATO Summit in Ankara.
