The world needs more enforced #netneutrality rules. Especially developing countries where #InternetAccess is still a very expensive luxury, widening the #digitaldivide. #HumanRights #online #NetRights #InternetFreedom @_AfricanUnion @RealSmartAfrica @ITU @theGNI @APC_News
European Regulators just stopped Facebook, Google & big telecoms’ #netneutrality violations. That's great news for Europeans & the open internet, says @StanfordCIS Director @vanschewick: https://t.co/n7tIrifqmZ

In closing, Paradigm Initiative Executive Director, @gbengasesan, reiterated the importance of building civil society capacity to engage regional processes, and also interrogating the laws that allow governments to shut down the Internet without any repercussion. #NetRights
"The work that we do today matters. It may not matter today but it will eventually and we can't give in to frustration. We have no other option than to stay the course and continue advocating for the respect of rights/freedoms. We must also keep innovating" - @lamumu07 #NetRights
"The whole point of human rights is that they are rights that need to be claimed on an ongoing basis... If we look at the last 20 years, we've had many positives from regional African processes but in the last few years, many countries have reversed gains." - @lamumu07 #NetRights
"As much as we are all key participants of all processes, in the end, States are the ones that become party to instruments and engaging them for long-term solutions is at the heart of employing regional mechanisms to resolve issues" - @lamumu07 #NetRights
"In order to complement national mechanisms, you must consider how regional mechanisms are configured to ensure digital rights protection, especially because some national human rights institutions may be easier to access or could take action more promptly" - @lamumu07 #NetRights

"In the name of public interest, governments attempt determine what is true, moral or decent, and this has presented challenges in some countries for journalists and other citizens. Nigeria and Kenya have introduced problematic bills around social media" - @MwanziaSigi #NetRights
"As schools were shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic, students had to move online to continue learning, and this further emphasises the need to address access to the Internet as a fundamental right that enables education, participation and more" - @MwanziaSigi #NetRights
After Nnenna Paul-Ugochukwu, PIN's Chief Operating Officer, welcomed participants, @MwanziaSigi was invited to make the first presentation. She stated that "standards that apply to non-electronic/offline communications also apply to electronic/online communications." #NetRights
We are excited to host, starting now, members of the #NetRights Africa Coalition and other partners for our first Learning Call of 2021. PIN Community Manager, @t_matimbe, is moderating a conversation with @lamumu07 and @MwanziaSigi on #DigitalRights protection.
