Integrating Digital Rights, Gender, and Inclusion in Cyber Capacity Building

Mexico, Global Partners Digital (GPD)

Building an inclusive and rights-based cyber capacity is essential to ensure no one is left behind in the digital age. Cybersecurity strategies can be more impactful when they systematically integrate human rights principles, gender mainstreaming, and intersectionality into their policy design and implementation plans. At the same time, cyber capacity building efforts are on a maturity trajectory to being more rights-based, gender-responsive, and inclusive by design.

  • What practical approaches and tools can we use to integrate human rights, gender equality, intersectionality, and inclusivity into cyber capacity building efforts?
  • What lessons and strategies can inform the next generation of cyber cooperation to ensure that it empowers individuals, addresses structural inequalities, and fosters equitable digital transformation? What are some leading examples by governments, civil society, and the private sector?
  • How can the international community ensure inclusive and balanced participation, particularly for groups that are vulnerable, underrepresented or marginalized, in cyber cooperation?
