Telenor and Children Rights
In its latest ‘Corporate Responses to Protecting Children’s Rights’ report, the non-profit put Telenor at the top of the child protection index, surveying all major Nordic corporations. The report has cited Telenor Group as a best practice example with its work in child online safety and transparent reporting on child labour in Telenor’s supply chain.
Highlights of the report are Telenor Pakistan’s Digital Birth Registration (DBR) project, the school outreach program for child online safety called iChamp, and transparent reporting of child labour in the supply chain.
Similarly, Telenor Pakistan has taken solid measures to promote digital literacy among children besides educating them on online safety through school outreach program called iChamp. Initiated in 2014 to familiarize and educate underprivileged children from far-flung areas about basic internet to improve their lives, iChamp continued to achieve so much more than was initially anticipated.
