RightsCon 2026 cancelled

RightsCon 2026 was cancelled. The global summit was expected to bring together civil society organisations, policymakers, technologists, journalists, and human rights defenders to discuss the impact of digital technologies on human rights.

RightsCon is an international forum focused on the intersection of human rights and technology. The event provides a space for discussion on issues such as freedom of expression, privacy, data protection, digital inclusion, platform governance, and emerging technologies. It combines plenary sessions, workshops, roundtables, and networking opportunities, with strong participation from civil society alongside governments, the private sector, and the technical community.
