WHAT IS INTERNET FOR TRUST?
The aim of the UNESCO's Internet for Trust Guidelines is to safeguard freedom of expression, access to information, and other human rights in the context of the development and implementation of digital platformr egulatory processes.
They outline rights-respecting regulatory processes and promote risk and system-based processes for content moderation and curation.
They call for States to apply regulation in a manner that is consistent with international human rights standards including with Article 19 (3) of the International Covention Civil and Political Rights which recognizes that any restriction to freedom of expression must be provided by law, and is necessary and proportionate, as well as Article 20 of the ICCPR ,which refers to those expressions that refer to incitement and propaganda for war. UNESCO is accepting community consultation on version 3 of these principles.
