[IRPCoalition] Update on our input to the Global Digital Compact submitted last April

[minda moreira]

Dear all,

Another important update this time regarding our input to the Global Digital Compact.

Firstly, I would like to thank you all for the input on the draft document. The input was submitted last April 29th, via the online form, and an email with supplementary information (i.e., a digital copy of the IRPC Charter) was sent the following day.

Unfortunately, our input was never published. After a few emails to the Global Digital Compact team and the Envoy on Technology office to enquire on the status of our submission, we were finally informed that the submission had not been received, which I believe was a technical glitch.

I re-submitted our input as advised on May 19th, but since then we have not received any further updates:

1. The reception of our (re)submission has not been confirmed;
2. There is no answer yet on whether our input will be taken into account or published online;
3. There are still no details on what could have been the cause of the technical glitch following the submission via the GDC website on April 29th.

I have cc'd the Global Digital Compact team and the Envoy on Technology office and I seriously hope that someone will get back to us on this as soon as possible.

We plan to continue the discussion on how the IRPC can better contribute to the future of the IGF and to the development and implementation of the Global Digital Compact, particularly on the application of human rights online at our annual meeting at the IGF 2023.

Please see attached a PDF copy of our submission.


Very best wishes,
Minda
