Over 11K students, educators take part in Globe's digital program
More than 11,600 students and educators nationwide participated in Globe Telecom's Digital Thumbprint Program promoting responsible digital citizenship and privacy awareness.
Globe said DTP tackled real-world issues such as data privacy, cyber safety, and identity protection which aims to empower users across all sectors to be more mindful of their digital footprints and to contribute responsibly to the digital community.
'As we celebrate ICT Month, we are reminded that technology should be a force for inclusion and empowerment. Through programs like DTP, we are helping ensure that every Filipino, from students to seniors, can participate in the digital economy safely and responsibly,' said Globe Chief Sustainability and Corporate Communications Officer Yoly Crisanto.
Globe brought DTP to schools and communities nationwide, including Bulacan State University, Universidad De Manila, Cebu Technological University, and Northern Iloilo State University.
Through workshops facilitated by Globe's volunteer ambassadors, the program delivered age-appropriate, localized content to young learners, educators, and even senior citizens.
Globe invited more schools, LGUs, and community organizations to partner and bring the Digital Thumbprint Program to more Filipinos for free.
Outside of academic institutions, Globe continues to support lifelong learners through the Senior Digizen program, helping older Filipinos engage with the digital world while staying safe online.
