التوصيات الصادرة عن الأطراف الشريكة في الرابطة العالمية المسيحية للتواصل (WACC) بشأن تنفيذ الميثاق العالمي الرقمي

The World Association for Christian Communication (WACC) and 25 partners from Asia, Africa, and the Middle East convened in Kathmandu, Nepal, in October 2024 to analyze the UN Global Digital Compact. The resulting report argues that the Compact lacks explicit mention of 'communication rights' and fails to address the human-driven nature of technology and its environmental impacts. The document provides detailed recommendations to ensure the digital transition prioritizes the public good over private profit, promotes gender intersectionality, addresses climate justice, and protects the rights of migrants.

• The Global Digital Compact fails to explicitly recognize 'communication rights' or the 'democratization of communication', focusing instead on digital technologies and artificial intelligence.
• The document criticizes the Compact for treating technology as a neutral force rather than a human product, which avoids accountability for intentional negative impacts and environmental consequences.
• WACC recommends that digital resources, including AI tools and platforms, be treated as public goods rather than commodities to ensure they serve human rights and the public interest over private profit.
• The document calls for the Global Digital Compact to address the vulnerabilities of migrants, including the use of digital platforms to spread hate speech and the need for secure, low-cost financial transaction mechanisms for remittances.
