More and more municipalities are choosing to implement HackShield as part of their youth and safety policies. Check here whether your municipality is already affiliated and how the program is being applied locally.
Invest in children's digital resilience
Municipalities play a key role in ensuring children grow up safely, both offline and online. Across areas like youth development, public safety and education, there is increasing recognition and opportunity to invest in digital resilience. HackShield helps municipalities turn that ambition into tangible action.
Through a proven approach, we reach children via schools and local partners in ways that connect with their everyday lives. This allows you to invest effectively in prevention, awareness and skills, creating real impact within your community.
How municipalities implement HackShield
HackShield makes digital resilience directly applicable within the municipality. For example:
1.
Local (class) competitions between schools
Schools and classes take on the challenge together within the HackShield game. This increases motivation, engagement, and reach in a playful way.
2.
Festive ceremonies for Junior Cyber Agents
Winners or participating classes are honoured during an official ceremony, often led by the mayor or local police. This creates a sense of pride, visibility, and involvement among parents and the wider community.
3.
Local events and activations
HackShield is used during events such as Media Literacy Week or local safety days, helping you to reach large groups of children and parents.
4.
Stronger online, across generations
HackShield brings generations together. Children not only learn themselves, they also help parents and grandparents stay safer online.
