PARADIGM Initiative will be hosting the Southern African Digital Rights Workshop in Lusaka, Zambia.

The interactive workshop, according to a statement signed by the social enterprise’s communications officer, Sodiq Alabi, would hold from 18 to 19 October 2018, introducing participants to the basic concepts of Digital Rights.

According to Wathagi Ndungu, Paradigm Initiative’s Google Policy for East and Southern Africa, “the purpose of the workshop is to create an empowered Civil Society digital rights community for Southern Africa that is able to defend and advocate for digital rights in the region, as part of a Pan-African coalition.”

“The media will also be trained to competently report on digital rights issues in the region. The end goal of the workshop is to ensure that legislators, after interacting with trained Civil Society Organizations and media that understand and follow current trends in digital rights they will be able to analyse and articulate digital rights issues in their respective countries thus improving the quality of parliamentary debates on the issues,” Ndungu added.

Speaking on the development, Paradigm Initiative’s Director of Programs, Tope Ogundipe, said “during the workshop and after we will create a Southern African Digital Rights Strategy and come up with ways to empower more individuals in the Digital Rights sphere.
