eRaksha 2020
The idea behind the eRaksha Competition, is to provide a platform to netizens to share tips and strategies on:
- How to be Safe & Responsible Netizens
- How to address Fake News and Misinformation especially with regard to COVID-19
Where on one end technological innovations are adding value to our lives and making it easier, there has also opened up a diverse set of risks which were unfathomable a few years ago. We have been involved in various awareness campaigns over the last couple of years, and we learned that almost every second internet user has had an unpleasant experience online, creating an urgent need to build resilience.
Cyber Peace Foundation has launched e-Raksha Contest in collaboration with NCERT is organising various competitions on the theme "Online Safety".
The Contest is open to the school students and in-service teachers across government & private schools and student teachers from RIEs, DIETs & Departments of Education in the universities. Through awareness and resilience, we can deal with these growing problems.
