👉This week marks a pivotal moment for the Digital Health and Rights Project. 🌐

This week, @DigHealthRights gathers in Geneva @GVAGrad to close its project "The Future of Human Rights in the Digital Age", bringing together human rights experts, young researchers & advocates to chart what comes next.

At a time of growing global pushback on digital rights and the right to health, the conversation couldn't be more urgent.

#CostsOfConnection

[Digital Health and Rights Project @DigHealthRights]

The @GCAT_dhrp is calling for stronger privacy protections for people seeking health information online especially people living with HIV.

As digital health platforms expand, safeguarding sensitive data and protecting users from stigma, abuse and discrimination must remain a priority.

📲Social media is increasingly becoming a new space where stigma against people living with HIV and the LGBT community appears, often disguised as “jokes” that cause real harm.

🎤▶️In this interview, representatives from our Vietnam community advisory team and experts discuss how online discrimination affects mental health, privacy, and access to HIV services.

Listen to the full conversation (in Vietnamese) to understand why creating safer, more respectful digital spaces matters.

Digital spaces should be safe and accessible for young adults. We need to work together to increase digital inclusion and digital literacy. Investing in connectivity and digital inclusion is key to providing equitable public internet access and protecting human rights and digital health.

We must also invest in digital literacy to empower communities online. You can learn more about digital divides and how to empower yourself and your community to protect your digital rights by joining our Mass Open Online Course (MOOC).

Today is #InternationalWomensDay. This year's theme is 'rights, justice, action for all women and girls'.

We know that women are disproportionately experiencing online harms including digital divides and technology-facilitated abuse. Our research has also found that national digital health strategies fail to account for gender.

We continue to raise these concerns and advocate for the rights of all women to be upheld in the digital space. For example, we recently submitted a response to the UN Working Group on Discrimination Against Women and Girls’ regarding their upcoming thematic report on Gender Equality, the Digital Space and the Age of Artificial Intelligence.

On International Women’s Day, remember: online harassment is a crime.
Section 67 of the Cybersecurity Act, 2020 (Act 1038) criminalizes cyberstalking and online abuse in Ghana.
Women deserve dignity and safety online.
