Don’t ask if AI will take your jobs, ask who wants it to

With realisation that data and online privacy are constantly under attack, the project is conceptualised under the theme: “The African Declaration on Internet Rights and Freedoms: fostering a human rights centred approach to privacy, data protection and access to the internet in southern Africa.”

The project, which is supported by Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa (OSISA), rolled out by the Association of Professional Communications (APC) in 4 other countries in the region, is administered by Namibia Media Trust and implemented by MISA Botswana in Botswana.

With the anticipation of a full operational Data Protection Act, MISA Botswana found it necessary to undertake public awareness and education campaigns to sensitize key stakeholders, including the general public. Through this project, MISA Botswana has so far conducted workshops in Maun, Palapye and Gaborone. Participants were drawn from a diverse population, including duty bearers in both government and civil society, traditional leadership, and media practitioners.

The Data Protection Act provides for safety of personal information, which usually falls into wrong hands upon been disclosed in official platforms. Linked to this is the right to privacy, which is provided for in both international and regional principles. Botswana is signatory to some of these conventions and therefore expected to domesticate and enforce them. 

With Regards

 Boitumelo Kgalushi

AG. National Director
