• encouraging them to do intellectual activity,
• encouraging the use of computers, applications and the Internet

The implementation of the project will allow the achievement of the following results

• people involved in the project will learn about potential threats and ways to prevent them on the Internet;
• group members will be able to use the acquired knowledge and skills both in private and professional life;

The expected impact on the group is:

• increasing the awareness and tolerance of people involved in the project;
• development of logistic planning skills;
• time management skills;
•  increasing public awareness.

The expected impact on the target group is:

• breaking the barrier and fear of using a computer, the Internet or applications
