Our partner Privanova: Contribution to the UN Convention

Privanova’s presence at the recent Reconvened Concluding Session of the Ad Hoc Committee where discussions centred around the draft of the United Nations Convention Against Cybercrime, went very noted. The session created momentum in order to shape the global approach to combating cybercrime, with Privanova making key contributions.

Privanova’s Position Paper

ELOQUENCE’s partners – Privanova and Farhan Sahito, PhD, presented the final position paper at the session, which is now featured on the UNODC website. The paper delves into essential topics such as integrating human rights safeguards, robust data protection measures, and the importance of international cooperation. These major elements are crucial in framing the ongoing discourse, ensuring that the convention not only combats cybercrime but also upholds fundamental rights and freedoms.

Impact on Global Cybersecurity Discussions

Privanova’s involvement has had a lasting impact on the discussions surrounding cybersecurity at a global level. The emphasis on incorporating human rights protections in cybersecurity frameworks marks a forward-thinking approach, reflecting the complex nature of modern cybercrime. This contribution has garnered attention from stakeholders worldwide and reinforced the need for collaborative solutions.
