TikTok, a widely popular short-video-sharing platform, has recently organized its first-ever digital safety event in Pakistan. The event was organized to launch its 'Safety Ambassadors Programme' which aims to protect and ensure the safety of its users.
The application has gained a reputation for its innovative and diverse community, and its strong focus on user protection and safety has contributed to its immense popularity.
TikTok's #SaferTogether campaign is a recent step in this direction, which aims to raise awareness around digital safety in the country.
The event was attended by several leading Pakistani content creators, including Taimur Salahuddin (aka Mooroo), Irfan Junejo, Faiza Saleem, Amtul Haseen Baweja, Hamza Bhatti, Areeka Haq, Anoushey Ashraf, and Kazi Muhammad Akber.
The panellists discussed various issues related to online safety, including misinformation, cyberbullying, harassment, and online scams. They also emphasized the importance of responsible internet usage and shared guidelines to help content creators produce compelling content.
In addition to the Safety Ambassadors Programme, TikTok has also launched the #SaferTogether initiative to create awareness about the safety of its users and the various in-app safety features available.
The platform offers a centralised location for safety updates called the Safety Centre. This provides users with updated information on all actions that TikTok takes to continuously boost safety and security on the platform. The Safety Centre also offers all the necessary tools and tips to help users stay safe while using the application.
