Student internet safety test to celebrate Safer Internet Day
Online quiz and valuable prizes for young people
Since 2009, Safer Internet Day has been celebrated every year in February around the world. This year’s event falls on 6 February. During this time, several initiatives will take place to communicate that while the internet has many benefits that play an important role in global progress and social development, it also has downsides and threats that everyone should be aware of and be prepared for. To celebrate Safer Internet Day, Yettel is launching a nationwide educational game called Nagy Diák TudatosNet Test (Big Student Internet Safety Test) in partnership with DUE Media Network. The aim of the competition is, among other things, to give students an opportunity to learn about safer use of the internet in a fun way, while at the same time giving them the chance to win valuable prizes.

More than a quarter of respondents say that women regularly encounter negative stereotypes in the workplace, whether about their appearance, personality or intellectual ability, according to a recent nationwide representative survey by Yettel. While both genders face their own challenges, more than half of the respondents agreed that it’s easier to succeed in the job market if you’re a man. On the occasion of Women’s Day, the mobile operator addressed the issue of stereotypes in the workplace and launched a scholarship program with Óbuda University to make IT and engineering more attractive to women.
