Protect QV is organising a competition to find the best illustration of digital rights. The competition is part of the Digital Rights Awareness Week organised by Protège QV from 04 to 09 December, and is a prelude to World Human Rights Day on 10 December 2023.

The aim is to promote a better understanding of the concept of "Digital Rights" among the general public, and to raise awareness of the fact that human rights must be respected both online and offline.

How can I enter the competition ?

The competition is open to young men and women aged between 18 and 30 and living in Cameroon. To enter the competition, candidates must send an email to mail@protegeqv.org with the subject line "Register for the competition" and leave the body of the message blank.
