Vishal Gondal- Founder & CEO- GoQii says playing online games is good for children! The problem is not games or internet. Problem is addiction to internet. When children begin spending too much time online, do not participate in group sports on ground, dont meet friends or neglect their sleep, thats when the problem arises.
Games in themselves are not harmful. Games teach team play, strategy & collaboration. However, children need hand holding in this process like they need to be taught what kind information they should share and avoid sharing with strangers.
Parents need to be inclusive in activity of their children. They need to spend time together knowing the games kids play, their internet friends etc. This builds a relationship of trust between parents and children.

ABOUT 'AKANCHA AGAINST HARASSMENT'
'Akancha Against Harassment' is India's largest social impact initiative against cyber harassment. It was founded by Miss Akancha Srivastava in February 2017. Its a not for profit Section 8 organisation.
Our Honorary advisory board members have illustrious company of: Vijay Shekhar Sharma (Founder- Paytm), IG Navniet Sekera (Uttar Pradesh), IG Roopa Moudgil (Karnataka) & IG Krishna Prakash (Maharashtra), Ritesh Malik (Founder- Innov8), Princess Diya (MP- Rajsamand). We are glad to have their support for this important cause.
The initiative aims at Education, Empowerment & Bridging of general population with the authorities.
To create educational awareness about cyber safety, the Foundation conducts workshops across the country in schools, colleges, tech universities, IITs, IIMs, teachers trainings, parents and more. Objective of these workshops is to educate mindful use of technology. Its a preemptive measure of making sure the probabilities of crime are reduced. It is also an effort to inspire everyone to give back to the country with their own skills. The initiative has appointed its ambassadors & champions across the country to take forward this education at schools, colleges.
If you want to invite us to your school, college, community or if you would like to work with us, please send us an email at : HelloAkancha@gmail.com
The initiative has a panel of lawyers, legal experts & members of other NGOs that empower with law & processes. One of the big gaps in India is that often we are not aware of our rights. We aim to help with information that can empower you in any situation of cyber safety.
Bridging is the most unique attribute of the initiative. We have a host of senior police officers from across the country supporting us in content & awareness drive. We are also honoured to have IG Navniet Sekera (Uttar Pradesh), IG Roopa Moudgil (Karnataka) & IG Krishna Prakash (Maharashtra) on our advisory board. This unique strength helps us address any victim complaints that come to us as well as inform people about various measures of law enforcement across the country.
We run India's only multilingual AI chat helpline for cyber safety. This helpline is currently available in Hindi & English on our website. It can be accessed from any internet enabled device. You can chat here anonymously, fearlessly. We do not track ISPs unless you trigger an SOS to Akancha in any crisis situation. Please note that all SOS emails go ONLY to Akancha. They are not accessed by any other team member.
We encourage you to please watch our videos, go to our website, arm yourself with knowledge. Stay Aware, Stay Safe.
