“Comming to every alley, knocking on every door” is the way that the Digital Literacy Youth Volunteer Team of An Dinh commune (Tuy An district) has been implementing during the recent times to improve people's digital capacity, especially the elderly. Although it has only been established for 2 months, the 12 members of the team have actively coordinated with the communal youth union and police to support organizations and individuals with electronic identification, deploying volunteer Saturdays to support people in handling administrative procedures, instructing people to integrate personal documents into the VNeID application, using QR codes for payment, and propagating about fraud and bad and toxic content on cyberspace, etc.
Mr. Nguyen Dang Trinh, Deputy Secretary of the Communal Youth Union, Captain of the An Dinh Commune Youth Volunteer Team for Digital Literacy, shared: The team members come to each house to “hold hands and show how to do it”, instructing people, especially the elderly, on the most basic operations such as: accessing the internet, installing the VNeID application, using online public services, making cashless payments, as well as skills to identify negative and toxic information on the Internet. We remind people not to trust any phone calls, not to click on strange links, if there are any problems, go to the Communal People's Committee for resolution.
Responding to the Digital Popularization Movement, during the past 2 months, Tuy Hoa City's youth have not been afraid of hardship, volunteering, going directly to each residential area and each household to support people in accessing and using technology devices.
At the age of 65, Ms. Nguyen Thi Le (ward 5, Tuy Hoa city) uses a smartphone without knowing how to use many operations and applications. Through the Digital Popularization Movement, Tuy Hoa City's Youth Union members have come to her house to guide her in updating information and documents on the VNeID application and to warn her about fraudulent calls. Ms. Le said: “I am a trader so I constantly transact and transfer money on my phone. But now, online fraud is becoming more and more sophisticated. Thanks to the guidance of young people, I have learned a few ways to avoid fraudulent phone calls and websites. The digital popular education movement of young people is very practical and helpful to the people”.
