[bestbits] We need your input: Survey on "Putting cybersecurity on the rights track"

[Daniela Schnidrig]

Dear Alex,


Thank you for sharing your project on “Putting cybersecurity on the rights
track”.  It looks like a great initiative and it’s positive to see more
groups engaging on this issue.


We know there are some groups already working on these topics, and thought
you might be interested in GPD’s portfolio on cybersecurity and human
rights which we have been running since 2014.


More information can be found on our website [
https://www.gp-digital.org/insight/cybersecurity] where we showcase some of
our publications and tools on cybersecurity and human rights [
https://www.gp-digital.org/publication/travel-guide-to-the-digital-world-cybersecurity-policy-for-human-rights-defenders/],
and on engaging in cybersecurity policy and strategy [

].


Best wishes

Daniela
