In an era dominated by digital interactions, knowing our digital/internet rights is crucial

On the eve of World Radio Day, MISA Zambia hosted a sensitization program on Phoenix FM Zambia about INTERNET RIGHTS: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR DIGITAL RIGHTS.

In an era dominated by digital interactions, knowing our digital/internet rights is crucial.

Internet rights are human rights and deserve as much respect as any other human rights.

The conversation delved into why there’s a perception that citizens lack understanding of their digital/internet rights.
