Essential preconditions for advancing human rights in today's digital environment: The role of encryption and anonymity

The event is centred around establishing the nexus between encryption and anonymity on the one hand and the development and protection of human rights on the other hand.

The webinar will go a long way in creating awareness for actors in the tech ecosystem, especially digital service providers, as to why encryption is essential to digital services. The event is also aimed at making regulators understand why any plans to weaken encryption is a step in the wrong direction in today’s digital age.
