Afnic reveals the theme of #JCSA18: Human Rights and Protocols

Since 2011, each year Afnic’s Scientific Council has organized a day of scientific and technical discussion around a chosen theme, including an in-depth technical tutorial in the morning and a scientific seminar in the afternoon. The 2018 edition aims to better understand human rights issues and their relationship with Internet protocols.

What are the differences and points in common between the principles and values of human rights and the Internet, between Internet norms and the foundations for human rights standards?

“Without setting a precedent, this year’s Afnic Scientific Council Open Day includes issues that go beyond strictly technical topics to explore and provide other lines of thinking about the values of human rights and the Internet. We hope that it will be an opportunity to present the viewpoints and approaches of the various stakeholders and participants, based on the same values of discussion and constructive exchange that the day is designed to produce.” Benoît Ampeau, Afnic Partnerships and Innovation Director.
