The main problem in Nicaragua is the lack of awareness about safe communication. Security trainings could be a viable solution to increase awareness about this topic. #TheHagueHacks2019 @HagueInnovators @HumanityHub

In the 'Breaking the Patriarchy' workshop the group has deduced that cyberbullying is the main problem. Especially women are targeted in online threats. A concrete solution they've come up with is to launch a social media campaign against cyberbullying. #TheHagueHacks2019
