OVERVIEW
In 2017, the DQ Institute collaborated with the Varkey Foundation to bring the #DQEveryChild movement into Argentina. With limited time to take part in the 2017 DQ World Programme, Augustin Porres and his team worked to offer schools the opportunity to participate in the 2017 DQ Study instead. The Study provides these schools with the necessary foundations for shaping their pedagogical approaches to digital citizenship education by first giving schools a preliminary review of their students’ current exposure to cyber-risks and their digital use habits.
Through their initiatives, 190 8-12 year olds were included in the analysis of the Study. Schools that had over 100 respondents will receive a DQ Screen Time Report, setting the groundwork for further collaborations with the Institute in 2018 for a wider implementation of the DQ World programme across Argentina.

“In the Dominican Republic, we are in the process of expanding new technologies and making [them] accessible [for] the entire population and particularly the most disadvantaged sectors in order to respond to pedagogical, cultural, and social challenges. To achieve this, digital education is essential. The digital citizenship programme from the DQ Institute comes to respond to the challenges we are facing today, offering tools, a structured programme and very valuable resources.”
