Why We Made It Open?

Scams and manipulation tactics change constantly. No single team can keep up alone.

 So this is built in the open, where Anyone can help improve it, correct it, or add to it.

And it doesn’t stop at the code. Our WhatsApp channel is where we post new modules and updates as they go live

Gatekeeping Digital safety behind a price tag defeats the point, too. The people most at risk are often the ones who can least afford to pay for protection.

So it’s Free. It’s Open. And nothing about it is hidden.

How We Keep This Free.

The Awareness Project is made open by our other training and consulting work . Here’s a bit about that, if you’re curious.
