E-RAKSHA COMPETITION



Hi there.
Do you use the internet?
What a silly question, right. With all services available at your fingertips, life has never been easier. So what do you do the most on your devices?
Games, research, socialising, the list can go on and on.
What we mustn’t forget though, is how there are many dangers lurking in cyberspace too. You too must have come across many situations where something mean was commented, or a friend was defrauded online or fake news was circulated. 
Through awareness and resilience, we can deal with these growing problems.
Presenting the eRaksha Competition 2020, the first competition in the world focusing exclusively on Digital Citizenship and Online Safety and tackling Fake News & Misinformation.
Do you have ideas that can make the internet safer and more inclusive?

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.
