[WEBINAR] Digital Rights and Grassroots Democracy

21 April 2026 - 13:30

Across Sub-Saharan Africa, youth are bypassing traditional political barriers by using digital tools to organize and demand accountability. While technology offers powerful new avenues for grassroots participation, it also introduces risks like surveillance and digital exclusion. 

To address this, Kevin Waigwa Gichuhi from Nuru Trust Network is hosting an interactive session for the Youth Democracy Cohort (YDC) to explore how digital rights support democratic action. 

Through breakout groups, participants will co-create practical, grassroots-driven digital responses for inclusive governance.
