CDT Contributes to UN Report on Digital Age Freedom of Expression

The Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) is pleased to announce its submission to the United Nations special rapporteur for freedom of opinion and expression, focusing on the crucial intersection of freedom of expression and elections in the digital era. The CDT emphasizes that safeguarding freedom of expression is vital for facilitating access to the ballot box and ensuring a fair electoral process.

In an age where digital platforms play a significant role in shaping public discourse, the CDT highlights the potential for new technologies to both empower and undermine democratic participation. While these technologies can enhance voter engagement and information dissemination, they also pose challenges such as misinformation, censorship, and unequal access to digital resources.

The CDT's submission aims to underscore the importance of creating a balanced digital environment that protects individuals' rights to express their opinions freely while ensuring that electoral processes remain transparent and inclusive. As the world navigates the complexities of digital communication, the CDT calls for robust measures to uphold democratic values and protect freedom of expression in the context of elections.
