Abstract: Digital resilience empowers children to use technology safely and productively for learning, expression, and skill-building. Yet, many Malaysian parents are uncertain about digital parenting, often adopting restrictive approaches that limit their children’s digital potential. Socio-economic disparities and cultural diversity further shape a wide range of digital parenting practices and technology acceptance. This study investigates the challenges Malaysian parents face and proposes strategies to help them become enabling digital parents who maximize opportunities while managing risks. Objectives include examining digital media’s impact on parenting, understanding parents' perceptions of digital risks, identifying current digital parenting styles, recognizing essential skills, and developing supportive educational modules. Using a mixed-methods approach with surveys, interviews, and expert insights, findings indicate that Malaysian parents are active but not creative digital users, have a balanced view of digital risks and benefits, and prefer flexible, adaptable learning on digital parenting. Recommendations include targeted support for underprivileged parents with limited digital exposure and promoting digital parenting education across workplaces, academic institutions, and government programs. The primary outcome is a set of customized digital parenting modules designed to empower Malaysian parents in fostering digitally resilient children.

Abstract: Family planning education is vital towards improvement of women’s health. In Malaysia, family planning counselling is delivered at both pre-pregnancy and postpartum care management. Traditionally, postpartum mothers are counselled at 6 weeks postpartum. However, “one off” health education activity may limits retained of information as compared to repetitive and reinforcement method using digital communication. Development of Rancanglah application brings great potential to complement current method in promoting family planning. It is followed by a usability study of the application among 34 healthcare workers (HCWs) and 100 public users in identifying its usage potential. Malay-mHealth Usability Questionnaire (M-MAUQ) is used and the questions are tailored to HCWs and public users. Higher mean usability score were found for both HCWs and public users. For all three main domains in M-MAUQ, both groups of respondents provide higher mean score. The high usability score of mobile application promotes more user attention and prone to be used in the long term. Essentially, RancangLah complements current method of family planning promotion. An intervention study shall be planned to enhance its usage and measure its effectiveness in reducing the unmet needs of family planning in the population.
