The IO Foundation's Projects
A multi-stakeholder initiative promoted by The IO Foundation to integrate Technology as a thematic area on BHR National Action plans around the world.
The Data-Centric Digital Rights (DCDR) Framewoek, is composed of Principles, Taxonomies and other technical tools for technologists. It enables them to develop a deeper understanding about the nature of data, the digital twins that emerge from it and make possible for them to embrace their role as NextGen Rights Defenders.
Project Lockdown (an initiative from The IO Foundation) is a civic tech, interactive platform providing an overview of the state of Human and Digital Rights around the globe. It evaluates policies obtained from official sources that may impact their observance. It provides, among other tools, a layered map interface that allows for a visual representation of the policies adopted, assisting a broad range of stakeholders in understanding the global state of their Rights. This empowers them to become active agents of global change.
