The goal of Cyber Congress is to raise awareness on cyber safety among school children by equipping them with knowledge on recognizing and preventing cyber crimes and being cyber safe, and sharing this information with others.
On Thursday the 11th of August 2022, the grand finale event of the Cyber Congress program was held simultaneously across all districts of Telangana. 3,300 children from 1,650 schools attended the events which introduced the students who successfully completed the Cyber Congress program as Cyber Ambassadors.
Youngistaan Foundation congratulates the SHE Teams officers, Women Safety Wing, teacher-mentors of the Education Department of the Government of Telangana, trainers Rakshit Tandon, Sai Satish and Sailaja, and the 50 Youngistaan Foundation volunteers who worked tirelessly for the past 10 months to train young students to be cyber aware and cyber safe.
Here are some snapshots of the Cyber Congress Grand Finale event across different districts in Telangana:
The Cyber Ambassadors who have graduated from the Cyber Congress program are now equipped with information on cyber crimes and cyber safety, and are empowered to continue sharing their knowledge with people in their homes, classrooms and communities on how to be cyber safe in an increasingly digital world.
