Entrants must publish videos on a personal Facebook, Instagram, X or TikTok account, using the official hashtags #MyDigitalJourney and #MyDigitalFuture and tagging the relevant government account where applicable.

Selected winners must submit the direct link to their published video through the designated channel within the campaign period, alongside details needed to verify participation.
Participants under 18 must obtain consent from a parent or legal guardian before creating and submitting videos. Anyone featured must also give consent, while content must respect privacy, copyright and campaign guidelines.
