A seminar was hold in the headquarters of the Barcelona Bar Association on Thursday, July 19, 2018, to establish the basis on which the Charter Citizens’ rights in the Digital Age should be drafted, led by the President of the Bar Association, Mª Eugenia Gay and the member of the governing board responsible for the Commission of Digital Transformation and president of ENATIC, Rodolfo Tesone.
The conviction that technological progress is unstoppable, that it allows numerous improvements for society, but also highlights the existence of risks for people’s rights, as essential as the right to privacy or the right to honor or reputation, makes it mandatory to rethink a new regulation that contemplates the technological irruption and places the citizens and the respect for their rights in the center of attention.
Therefore, we must work from transversal and international standpoint, collaborating with different sectors of society, and through a participatory process.
