Digital Human Rights - Moonshot for a Shared Digital World
Show Notes

This week tune in to the our second episode in the Digital Human Rights series, produced in partnership with Digital Rights House. Together with Jake Blok, co-founder of Digital Rights House, we talk with entrepreneurs, policymakers and researchers about digital human rights and gather advice to accelerate the adoption of digital human rights in the city. 

We sat down for a longer conversation with Grace Simrall, Chief of Civic Innovation for the City of Louisville, and Ric Edinberg, a Chicago based designer specialized in Human Centered Design. We spoke about the difficulties of navigating the blurry line between digital and non-digital human rights and the benefit of applying consideration and intention where digital innovation seems to find forward momentum on its own accord. What do our guests think about the current state of digital rights and what advice for the future of the digital city comes from their experience?
