[ecrea] Children's and Young People's Rights in the Digital Age: IAMCR pre-conference

Wed May 25 18:53:45 GMT 2016


*Children's and Young People's Rights in the Digital Age*

We are pleased to announce that our draft conference programme is now online at http://www.lse.ac.uk/media@lse/research/GKO/PDF/CRDA-July-2016.pdf

Registration is open at http://eshop.lse.ac.uk/browse/product.asp?compid=1&modid=1&catid=327 - the Early Bird fee ends this Friday.

We see a growing momentum for recognition of the potential of online and networked media for promoting children’s rights. Yet, researchers, child rights’ advocates and internet governance experts are concerned that children’s rights are being newly infringed rather than enhanced in the digital age. This raises questions for research, policy and practice:

   * How is the digital environment impacting on children’s rights today?
   * What are the challenges to children’s rights presented by the digital?
   * How might we seize the opportunities for children’s
     online participation to promote children’s rights globally?

We hope you will register and come to join a lively discussion.

Note that the conference will include a plenary presentation from Global Kids Online - see www.globalkidsonline.net <http://www.globalkidsonline.net/>. For those wishing to attend the main IAMCR conference in Leicester, our pre-conference will finish in good time.

All the very best,

Sonia Livingstone, Amanda Third and Mariya Stoilova
