Protect21st – Decolonizing cyberspace is a wider social design project that aims to contribute to solving several prominent life issues recognized in the early decades of the 21st century: the threats of the digital world and new technology, the issues of urban environment and food safety – primarily focusing on Vietnam.

Initiated by artist and designer Tra Nguyen in early 2021, the project’s activities are largely based on the support of the media art language that through creative cultural campaigns contribute to raising public awareness, to changing everyday habits and to inspire new behaviors for a better and more sustainable life.

One of the first media campaign of Protect21 entitled “Wiping digital footprint”. Several workshops, exhibition are to be organized within this campaign. Especially, the project involed 29 artist-activists to act together in the digital footprint topic. More than 40 posters were created to raise public awareness about personal data protection and privacy issues.
