Promoting Digital Rights in Bangladesh is the first part of a four-part policy brief series initiated by Digitally Right. The primary objective of this initiative is to identify key digital rights priorities in the country, support civil society, industry and the government with relevant knowledge and insights, and promote collaborative, multi-stakeholder discussions.
As the initial installment of the series, this brief provides a broad overview of digital rights priorities, the contemporary policy landscape, needs, gaps, and potential areas for engagement through consultation with stakeholders, including local civil society and international organizations, along with comprehensive desk research. Subsequent briefs in the series will cover specific priority issues, examining content governance, internet access and shutdowns, and privacy and data protection.
