👥 Participants: More than 50 enthusiastic students

Yuwa Ki Aawaz Sanstha, a nationally recognized organization working towards youth empowerment and social development, organized a Cyber Safety Awareness Campaign under its flagship program – Skill Development & Ruler Employment Mission 2025. The campaign was conducted in Sitapur, Uttar Pradesh with the aim of educating school students on the growing risks of online fraud, digital scams, and cyber hacking.

🎯 Objective of the Campaign

In today’s digital era, children are increasingly exposed to smartphones, social media platforms, and online learning environments. Unfortunately, with greater internet use comes greater risk. The objective of this campaign was to:

• Educate students about safe online behavior
• Teach the importance of strong and secure passwords
• Raise awareness about phishing calls and wrong number frauds
• Build cyber resilience among youth in rural areas

📚 Highlights of the Event

• Interactive Workshop: The team conducted a fun and engaging session using visuals, real-life examples, and simple language that students could easily relate to.
• “Ye Wrong Number Hai” Activity: A special segment showing how scammers use fake calls and OTP tricks to fool people. This created a lasting impact on students.
• Map and Visuals: A digital map of Uttar Pradesh was shown to help students identify where these scams are most prevalent.
• Awareness Posters: Displayed posters with safety tips and dos & don’ts regarding digital platforms and online transactions.

🔐 5 Most Important Tips to Prevent Online Hacking Shared During the Campaign

1. Never include personal details (phone number, date of birth, vehicle number, etc.) in your passwords.
2. Avoid using your name as your password. It can be easily guessed.
3. Use different passwords for email, social media, online banking, and e-wallets.
4. Avoid saving passwords on public/shared devices. It can lead to hacking.
5. Change your passwords regularly – every 3 to 4 months – to stay safe.

Many students admitted they were unaware of such cyber threats and expressed gratitude for the session.
