In 2021, she was appointed head of the Alliance for Child Protection in the Digital Environment, established in the presence of the President of the Russian Federation.

Throughout her tenure, Elizaveta Belyakova has made significant contribution to safeguarding children and youth online. Under her leadership, the Alliance has organized over 40 major initiatives to advance digital literacy, including the For Safe Digital Childhood award, Children’s Digital Safety Day at the Russia Exhibition and Forum (VDNKh), Anti-Cyberbullying Day, the Digital Safety Festival, and the Safe Digital Space regional marathon. These programs engaged over 20,000 children from Russia, including the new regions of Kherson and Zaporozhye, as well as international participants. She spearheaded the creation of 10 educational resources on internet safety, such as the Alphabet of the Alliance, a digital literacy course, the Digital Trust platform, and others. She also oversaw groundbreaking research, including the study Technologies for Protecting Children Online (identifying current and future cyberthreats) and the sociological analysis Organizing Protection of Children and Adolescents from Online Harms in Russia. Additionally, she directed the development of child safety apps like the Digital Library: Practical Knowledge Hub (Tsifrateka) and enhancements to the parental control software Kaspersky Safe Kids.

Under Belyakova’s guidance, the Alliance published the world’s first Digital Childhood Ethics Charter — a novel soft-law mechanism for protecting minors online — now endorsed by over 13,000 organizations.

Belyakova is a member of the Association of Lawyers of Russia.
