Discharging Social Responsibility — Privacy Commissioner’s Office Continues to Fully Support the “Strive and Rise Programme” 

Following last year’s efforts in organising an educational talk for participants of the Second Cohort of the “Strive and Rise Programme” (the Programme), the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) organised another educational talk on 8 August for around 20 participants of the Third Cohort. The talk covered the roles and responsibilities of the PCPD, as well as its work in handling complaints, combatting “doxxing” offences, and promoting the protection of personal data privacy, followed by a guided tour of the PCPD’s office.
 
The PCPD is one of the supporting organisations of the Programme, which aims to support secondary school students from underprivileged families by broadening their horizons, reinforcing their self-confidence, helping them develop a positive outlook on life and set future goals, and encouraging their pursuit of upward mobility. The Programme is led by the Government and seeks to achieve its objectives through tripartite collaboration among the Government, the business sector, and the community.
