Information about the project
En TIC Confío
Colombia is going through a digital revolution. With an increasingly connected population, new and amazing uses of Internet are growing, but also the risks are greatly enhanced. Since 2011, En TIC confío – initiative of the Colombian Ministry of ICT – has promoted policies for the responsible use of Internet among children and citizens, through digital and real environments. It has the big challenge to raise awareness and prevent risks in the Web. This project has reached 100% of Colombian towns through its website, its social media channels and more than 10.000 conferences open to the public at no cost.
National implementation: Colombia
Ongoing from 03/01/2011 to 31/12/2018
