EU: Principles for a Human Rights-Centred Application of the DSA
[]
ARTICLE 19
This week, ARTICLE 19 joins members of the Digital Services Act (DSA) Human Rights Alliance in calling for the integration of global perspectives and respect for international human rights standards, recognising that DSA has impacts beyond the European Union.
The Principles for a Human Rights-Centred Application of the DSA set out concrete steps for the European Commission, national policymakers, and regulators to ensure that DSA implementation is grounded in international human rights standards through inclusive and meaningful stakeholder engagement.
It also offers guidance for regulators and international actors beyond the EU, emphasising the essential role of civil society in providing expertise and acting as human rights watchdogs.
This is why the DSA Human Rights Alliance has created a set of recommendations to include civil society organisations (CSOs) and rights-defending stakeholders in the enforcement process.
The Principles promote meaningful stakeholder engagement and emphasise the role of civil society organisations in providing expertise and acting as human rights watchdogs.
