The tech giant will collaborate with MeitY to expand its ‘Stay Safe Online’ campaign through a variety of initiatives, including cyber literacy programs, multilingual digital content on online safety, and educational content on how to navigate information online, IANS reported from New Delhi.
“With over 700 million Indians using the internet and the country driving transformative innovations with the power of digital technologies,” said Sanjay Gupta, Country Head and Vice President, Google India.
Google’s ‘Be Internet Awesome’ programme will raise awareness about the fundamentals of online safety by sharing useful content on a variety of online safety topics.
“India’s G20 presidency provides an extraordinary opportunity to shape an internet model that promotes inclusivity and establishes new global standards.” With this expansion comes an urgent need to educate citizens of all ages about online risks, as well as the adoption of safety measures and cyber hygiene to protect themselves, said Akash Tripathi, CEO of MyGov.
