As civic spaces expand online, local organizations face growing challenges in safeguarding privacy, protecting data, and ensuring responsible use of technology. Without strong systems, communities risk exposure to surveillance, discrimination, and harmful practices that undermine fundamental freedoms.
This initiative empowers grassroots civil society groups to strengthen their digital rights capacity. Over six months, selected organizations will receive practical training on data protection, compliance with national legislation, and tools to embed privacy safeguards into their operations. Peer‑to‑peer learning and collaboration will reinforce collective resilience, while participants also gain knowledge to advance freedom of expression, anti‑discrimination, and responsible technology use in their communities.
By equipping local actors with the skills and systems they need, the program builds stronger human rights movements and ensures civic engagement remains safe, inclusive, and rights‑based.
💡 Targeted support available — small‑scale grants and training for local CSOs committed to digital rights.
