The need for awareness
In the last one decade, there has been a sharp increase in the numbers of cybercrime being committed in India. Unfortunately, a large chunk of these crimes are committed against women. Some of the key reasons contributing to this are the huge gender inequality prevalent in India, and also the lack of digital literacy. Another challenge is the fact that most of the women who are victims of cybercrime, do not file complaints. The common reasons behind this are either the lack of support from family and/or law enforcement, and the lack of awareness, which leaves them vulnerable to crimes in online spaces. Deterrence can be created only if incidents are reported and action is taken against perpetrators. Although the cybercrime reporting portal has been set up for convenient reporting, many cases are left unresolved. Those cases which are resolved and disposed off are reported again within 6-12 months on an average.
Our Goal
Over the past three years, through the three phases of the Digital Shakti initiative, we sensitised over 3,00,000 girls , women and netizens across the country with the aim to build resilience in online spaces. However, there is still a large percentage of the female population that needs to be sensitised, to ensure women are safe when navigating cyberspace, and are equipped with the skills to make the most of what technology and the internet have to offer.
Through phase 4, we aim to sensitize 10 lakh girls , women and netizens across the country on the fundamentals of online safety and digital literacy.
