Frequently Asked Questions about the Program

How do I access the program schedule?

The program schedule is now available for registered participants on the RightsCon platform. will become available to registered participants on May 23, when our online platform opens. Not registered? Get your ticket before June 3 to access the platform.

If you’re a session organizer, you should have already received confirmation of the date and time of your session! If you have any questions, reach out to us at [email protected].

Where will Access Now host the RightsCon program in 2022?

The 11th edition of RightsCon will be held online and across all time zones from June 6-10, 2022.

Why should I contribute to the program?

RightsCon equips session organizers to build skills, networks, and strategies for action. You’ll receive resources and training to increase your facilitative leadership, and opportunities to connect with other organizers before the summit starts. RightsCon’s global platform can raise the profile of your work and provide direct access to thousands of participants with the power and expertise to take your ideas to the next level.

How can I contribute now that the Call for Proposals is closed?

If you did not submit a proposal, participating at RightsCon is just as valuable as hosting a session. RightsCon 2022 will be the place to build a shared agenda for a just, sustainable digital future.

This year we project 10,000 participants from over 150 countries! Registration is set to open on February 9, so don’t forget to mark your calendar to join us.

If you haven’t had the chance to do so, we suggest you sign up for our newsletter to receive the latest updates on the event and opportunities to engage.

Also, don’t forget to check out our social media channels (Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook) to help us build momentum, spread the word about RightsCon, and check in on our community buzz ahead of our 11th edition.

What topics does the program cover?

The program is broad in scope and supports many topics of continued importance for our community, including data protection, artificial intelligence, privacy and surveillance, content governance, digital security, connectivity, business and labor practices, and cyber norms.

We also look for new issues to place on the agenda and prompt exploration. In recent years, we have introduced streams on human rights-centered design, futurism and fiction, peacebuilding, environmental justice, and more.

Who evaluates the Call for Proposals?

Access Now works with a Program Committee to review the Call for Proposals. Every year, we invite leaders and advocates from around the world to chair the Program Committee and help us select proposals based on our core evaluation criteria (relevant, actionable, original, diverse, and participatory). We also look holistically across categories and take other factors into account in order to create the strongest and most inclusive program possible.

The program schedule will become available to registered participants on May 23, when our online platform opens. Register now and you’ll be notified as soon as the platform opens!

If you’re a session organizer, you will receive an email with the time and date of your session in early May!

What are the outcomes from past programs?

RightsCon positions our community to secure commitments, develop resources and campaigns, and set standards for human rights. Our summit has launched government initiatives, produced coalitions to fight internet shutdowns and prevent the misuse of digital identity systems, prompted statements from U.N. experts and independent regulators, and established principles for non-discrimination in AI and the online sale of medicines.
