Dear Friends,
Over the next two days, Access, sponsored by Google, Facebook, Twitter, Mozilla, Yahoo!, Skype, AT&T among other, will be hosting the Silicon Valley Human Rights Conference. The Conference is an outcome-oriented event, centered on private roundtables and public sessions, that will bring information and communications technology (ICT) entrepreneurs, executives, and engineers together with policy analysts, human rights specialists and charitable organizations in the field. One of the SVHRC main goals is to exam and explore how the human rights and high tech sectors can better plan for and manage the human rights implications of new technologies.
Many outstanding speakers from the most different industries, countries and backgrounds will be speaking at the event. The debates are also going to be enrished by the massive presence of activistists, students, and representatives from civil society, private company and governments.
A live stream of all the conference plenary sessions and panels, supported by Portal A and YouTube via CitizenTube can be found on RightsCon.org as well as AccessNow.org. Make sure to share it with your friends and colleagues and join us in this amazing event!
Best,
The Access Team
