Two days of learning, sharing, questioning, and taking action for safer digital spaces!

Digital Rights Nepal (DRN), with support from UNDP Nepal and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) under the Advancing Civic Engagement for Democratic Participation (Civic Engagement) Project, successfully concluded the Digital Rights & Safety School in Janakpur.

The School brought together young people and representatives of youth-led civil society to learn, question, share experiences, and explore how we can make our digital spaces safer and more meaningful.

Turn learning into action: Building safer, inclusive, and rights-respecting digital civic spaces

Through interactive discussions, practical exercises, and real-life scenarios, participants explored how to turn knowledge into action and help build safer, inclusive, and rights-respecting digital civic spaces.
