Welcome to the Official Schedule for RightsCon 2019, the world’s leading summit on human rights in the digital age.
Together at RightsCon Tunis, our first summit hosted in the Middle East and North Africa, more than 2500 expert practitioners will come together across over 400 sessions to shape, contribute to, and drive forward the global agenda for the future of our human rights.
Important note: Whether you’re a session organizer, speaker, or participant, you’ll need to login to Sched or create an account in order to get the most out of the program (including creating a profile and building your own customized RightsCon schedule).
During this strategic roundtable we aim at having to build an alliance with data protection activists worldwide that would like to advocate for their countries to sign and ratify (and implement) Convention 108 of the Council of Europe on data protection and implement national data protection laws. Convention 108 is open to signing and ratification from any country in the world (not only CoE countries) and it sets the highest standards for data protection worldwide. However, not many countries have signed and ratified the Convention.
