Prince Harry and his wife Meghan will go to the European Parliament in Brussels on Tuesday to discuss the dangers social media poses to young people, their spokesperson said Wednesday, according to News.ro.

It will be their first public trip abroad since returning to the United Kingdom at the end of August, after six years in the United States.

In the morning the couple will inaugurate the “Lost Screen Memorial,” an Archewell Foundation installation of giant phone screens showing portraits of children and teenagers whose deaths are linked to social media. The memorial is meant both as a tribute to victims and a call to action for policymakers, tech firms and society, the spokesperson said.

Harry and Meghan, who campaign on online risks, will give a speech. In Australia in April, the Duchess of Sussex said she herself had been “the victim of bullying and attacks” on social networks “every day for ten years.”

Since their surprise return to the UK, the couple have settled with their two children in the Cotswolds and stayed relatively discreet; they made one joint public appearance in mid-October in Nottingham.
