Right to privacy in a digital age: Response to a Call for Inputs by UN OHCHR

In March 2018, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights invited all stakeholders to provide input on human rights challenges relating to the right to privacy in the digital age, including on principles, standards and best practices with regard to the promotion and protection of the right to privacy. IT for Change's response calls for the need for an approach that foregrounds groups interests and the right to freedom from harm, moving beyond narrow readings of privacy that view it as solely as an issue of personal identity and individual privacy.
