Cyber Wellness Centre
The Cyber Wellness Centre, initiated by Responsible Netism, is India’s first dedicated center located in Panjim, to tackle issues associated with online distress. The Centre provides free services to promote responsible online behaviour, advocates for cyber wellness and aims at making #CyberSafeGoa.
Children’s vulnerability in cyberspace is a significant concern due to their lack of awareness and understanding of the consequences and legal implications. They often face cyber threats through social media, online gaming and gambling platforms, including exposure to strangers, stalking, cyberbullying, and access to age-inappropriate content, pornography etc. These cyber-crimes result in detrimental effects such as social isolation, sleep deprivation, and depression. The online distress experienced by victims can cause long-term emotional and psychological trauma.
The Cyber Wellness Centre is a holistic resource that educates and trains individuals on preventing cyber-crimes.
The Centre provides free of cost services to all:
- Psychological support, counseling

- Addresses internet and gaming addictions or related extreme disorders
- Provides technical support to identify tech (gadget) based issues
