Cyber Safety in Tonga

"Creating a Safer Digital Tonga – One School and One Community at a Time"
Tonga Women in ICT is leading the movement for Cyber Safety awareness across Tonga. From primary and secondary schools to remote communities, we’re equipping children, youth, parents, and teachers with the knowledge and tools to stay safe online. Through interactive workshops, real-life scenarios, and culturally grounded storytelling, we break down threats like cyberbullying, scams, and online predators into simple, relatable messages.

Our outreach has even reached the outer islands—like Hunga in Vava‘u—ensuring no one is left behind in the digital age. We believe cyber safety isn’t just a tech issue—it’s a life skill. TWICT is committed to building a digitally aware, cyber-smart generation that can thrive safely in our connected world.

The following in-country expert partners have taken the lead in collecting primary and secondary data, including surveys, that allows inferences on gender and information and communications technology (ICT) data to a sample of the national population. With the guidance of the Alliance for Affordable Internet (A4AI) and the World Wide Web Foundation (Web Foundation) teams, local partner organisations led all in-country research and consultation processes with other national stakeholders to identify concrete policy actions and steps that the government can take in the next year to address the gender equality challenges and digital gender gaps identified.
