We are a non-profit organization committed to championing digital rights and shaping Artificial Intelligence policy with the active participation of young voices.
Mission Statement: The mission of Global Initiative for Digital Rights is to strategically uplift marginalized youth voices in the realm of digital governance, and to advocate for widespread educational efforts on contemporary digital topics worldwide, in an equitable manner.
Global Initiative for Digital Rights is dedicated to encouraging and facilitating youth involvement in policy discussions, governmental spaces, civil society forums, and corporate board rooms through our pragmatic approach on educating young people, empowering them to make their voices heard, and leading them to make choices that strengthen their communities. We do this through a grassroots approach: allowing any person aged 13 and up to participate, and we give them the resources to enact change in their community, one tablet, lesson, or speech at a time.
We have been featured at multiple organizations, and our partners span continents across, and we are constantly growing at 17 countries, with the number increasing daily. We hope you can help us, as an initiator or as a partner.
Our work spans 5 regions: Americas, Europe, India, Asia & Oceania, and Middle East & Africa. The board of directors have established regional directors and action managers in each of the regions in order to better allow for a grassroots feel to the organization, and allowing for communities to interact with their own members for specialized feedback.
