How to work with tech companies on human rights
04/23/2019 12:00 PM - 1:15 PM in Cambridge (Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika)
How can advocates, activists, and academics work with technology companies to advance human rights? When do public “name and shame” campaigns make a difference compared to confidential conversations? David Sullivan, director of learning and development at the Global Network Initiative, has spent the past decade working closely with technology companies on vexing human rights challenges, from conflict minerals in hardware supply chains to fighting censorship and surveillance online.
In this talk, he draws upon a contentious exchange with Steve Jobs about the Democratic Republic of Congo to offer insights into how companies and civil society can work together on tough issues at the intersection of technology and human rights online.
David Sullivan, Director of Learning and Development at the Global Network Initiative, is joined in conversation with Berkman Klein Fellow, Chinmayi Arun.
