Embedding children's rights in the digital environment: the work of the Digital Futures Commission

Can we imagine a digital future that includes children rather than one that treats them as an exception, problem or afterthought Recognising that digital technologies are part of the infrastructure of children’s daily lives, and inspired by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC), which applies from birth to 18, the Digital Futures Commission has asked what ‘good’ looks like for children in a digital world? We have sought to address and go beyond the hygiene factors of safety, privacy and security to rethink how technology can benefit children.
