On 14 March, the Science and Technology Park of Montenegro hosted the final competition within the “Be Internet Awesome” project, implemented by the “Čini dobro” Foundation in partnership with the STP, and designed for primary school students across Montenegro.

On that occasion, the participants demonstrated exceptional knowledge and skills acquired during this six-month educational journey.

The competition brought together students from six primary schools: “Risto Manojlović” from Kolašin, “Kekec” from Sutomore, the Second Primary School from Budva, “Njegoš” from Cetinje, “Radojica Perović” from Podgorica, and “Aleksa Bećo Đilas” from Mojkovac.

Through workshops, practical tasks, and interactive activities, the children learned how to identify potential risks in the online environment, protect their personal data, and develop responsible behaviour on the internet.

The best teams were selected by an expert jury consisting of: Vladan Mašanović from the Science and Technology Park of Montenegro, Mira Lopičić Zloković from the Innovation Fund of Montenegro, Ana Labudović from the Ministry of Education, Science and Innovation of Montenegro, as well as Dušan Vojinović from Grawe osiguranje, and Ljubomir Dujović from One Montenegro.

Three teams demonstrated exceptional knowledge of internet culture and won awards provided by the company One Montenegro.
