Research authorship within a multi-institution project

Kim R. Sylwander

Kim R. Sylwander is a credited coauthor of the December 2024 Digital Futures for Children guiding-principles report. The report forms part of the Toolbox measurement project and later appears among the sources used by Australia’s eSafety Commissioner.

What the authorship supports

The report’s cover identifies Sylwander as one of six authors. Its later citation by eSafety explains why the authorship belongs in this investigation. Individual drafting responsibilities are not disclosed, and no separate instruction from Sylwander to the regulator is recorded. The useful next evidence would concern the report’s development and the toolkit’s selection of particular findings.

What the records show

From the investigation

What the cited report supports

The footnote29 URL points to the 61-page December2024 report Guiding principles for addressing technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation and abuse , by Anri van der Spuy, Sabine Witting, Patrick Burton, Emma Day, Sonia Livingstone and Kim R. Sylwander. The report cover and p61 citation identify a Digital Futures for Children centre publication; the LSE repository calls it a technical report. The toolkit citation instead includes Security and Safety, vol.4 . That is a bibliographic discrepancy, not yet proof of an incorrectly linked document.
