The Digital Reality
for Children In India
1 in 4 Internet Users in India is a Child
- There are 164 Million Child Internet Users in India
- Children on the internet outnumber the populations of some of the world’s major nations.
- The internet has become an integral part of their daily lives, shaping their education, socialization, and future.
Conversations about children's safety online are still stuck on cyberbullying and basic threats.
The internet has grown, and so have dangers such as AI-generated Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM, Grooming and Sextortion)
Why Infantia?
- The digital culture is evolving rapidly, leaving parents, law enforcement, and policymakers unequipped to understand or act.

- Infantia is a platform to address these issues holistically, bringing all stakeholders together.
