The Government of Gujarat’s Education and Home Affairs Departments launched an initiative called Cybersecurity Awareness and Creative Handholding Kendra (CAWACH) to educate young people about online safety, cyber threats, and responsible internet use.
As part of this initiative, MK Bhavnagar University organized a month-long Cybersecurity and Digital Empowerment Campaign. The campaign was led by Dr. Dilip Barad and focused on teaching students about the dangers of cybercrime, how to stay safe online, and the importance of digital responsibility. The program reached students from 17 different departments, helping them become more aware of cybersecurity risks and how to protect themselves.
Two teams, led by Ms. Prakruti Bhatt and Ms. Megha Trivedi, played a key role in making the campaign successful. They conducted interactive sessions where students learned about identifying cyber threats, protecting their personal data, and ensuring online safety. These efforts helped students develop responsible digital habits and become more cautious while using the internet.
To appreciate the hard work and dedication of the faculty members and students involved in the campaign, MK Bhavnagar University organized a felicitation program. During this event, participants were awarded certificates and financial rewards as a token of appreciation for their efforts.
These students and faculty members actively contributed by conducting awareness sessions, managing campaign logistics, and ensuring smooth execution of activities. Their commitment to spreading knowledge about digital safety was recognized and celebrated. The awards not only acknowledged their hard work but also encouraged them to continue promoting cybersecurity awareness within the university and beyond.
The CAWACH Kendra initiative is more than just a one-time program—it is a step toward creating a safer and more responsible digital world. By spreading awareness about cyber threats, online safety, and mental well-being, this initiative is helping students and young people navigate the internet in a secure and informed way.
With continuous efforts and participation, we can build a digitally aware and responsible community. Join hands with CAWACH Kendra and be part of the movement toward a safer and more secure digital future!
