National Safer Internet Centre (NCBI) organized the Czech
GOW campaign for the fourth time in collaboration with
a range of stakeholders and partners. Among the main
partners, there were CZ.NIC Association, DZS (Centre for
International Cooperation in Education established by
the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport of the Czech
Republic), the NICM (a network of 40 Information Centres
for Youth covering all the country) and others.
The NCBI used both on line and off-line channels to
promote the GOW2017 campaign. Over 37,000 people
were reached during the GOW17. Five face-to-face events
included a professional conference organized by the AFCEA
Czech chapter with more than 200 attendees to learn about
the important changes of the EU and the Czech legislation,
in connection with the e-Privacy regulation; trainings and
workshops for main target groups - youths, parents/carers
and teachers - with an objective to increase their digital
literacy and readiness for employment in the digital era.
