‘Digital Citizenship & Cyber Wellness Olympiad 2017-18’ (DCCWO) is the theme of the first Olympiad under the series launched today. This Olympiad emerged out of the growing popularity of technology in daily life today but lacking awareness towards being safe online and the knowledge of cyber laws related to the same.

President and CEO of NeGD, MEITY, Government of India Ms. S. Radha Chauhan opined, “Learning Olympiads is a well-timed initiative for the digital information age and offers adjunct solutions that are not directly available through academics or schooling. This year’s theme is all the more thought provoking and relevant and I believe this series will come to play an important role in supporting our next generation”.
