ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Safer with Google: The Launch of Digital Pasban

Kids want to explore. Teens want independence. Parents want to protect. Digital Pasban brings these together, a program by Google, in partnership with Tech Valley, that equips 200,000+ households nationwide with practical tools and hands-on training to help families navigate the internet safely and with confidence.

Keeping kids safe online isn’t one person’s job. It takes parents setting the right defaults, teachers reinforcing safe habits in the classroom, creators modeling responsible behavior, and platforms building safety in from the start. Digital Pasban brings all four together; working alongside the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) , Beaconhouse School System (BSS), Jazz World, Hum Network, Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training (MOFEPT), and Inter-Provincial Coordination (IPC).

The Story Behind Digital Pasban

One story, the whole idea; why Pakistani families need a digital safety net, and how
Google and Tech Valley are building one together

Four Ways Digital Pasban Keeps Families Safe

Family Link

Family Link lets parents manage their child’s Google Account: setting screen time limits, approving apps, and checking in on activity; giving parents visibility and control without constant friction.

Be Internet Awesome

Google’s free digital-citizenship curriculum teaches kids the fundamentals of online safety: being smart, alert, strong, kind, and brave; through age-appropriate lessons kids can apply on their own.

YouTube Shorts

Built-in reminders like the Shorts App Timer and “Take a Break”/”Bedtime” prompts help families set healthy, low-friction boundaries around screen time.

SafeSearch

SafeSearch filters explicit content out of Google Search results automatically; a safety net that works by default, before a parent has to set anything up.

ToolKit for Parents
