The Hungarian Competition Authority (GVH) conducted educational sessions in 52 schools across 175 classes, reaching over 4000 students as part of its Digital Awareness Program. The initiative aims to educate students on the dangers of the online world and promote conscious internet usage.

The program, which started in January, received significant interest and engagement from students. GVH experts provided interactive lectures to raise awareness among children about digital consumer protection issues and the importance of safeguarding their online data.

Feedback from participating students revealed a high level of interest and openness, with many sharing personal experiences related to online transactions, cybersecurity incidents, and unauthorized access to their accounts. These experiences underscored the necessity and significance of the Digital Awareness Program.

In a recent episode of the GVH Podcast, program organizers discussed the initiative, shared insights from their experiences, and provided guidance for parents and teachers on promoting safe internet usage among children.
