In an effort to enhance public awareness and mobilize support for Sierra Leone’s Draft Data Protection Bill, the Campaign for Human Rights and Development International (CHRDI), in collaboration with their partner ACCESS NOW, has embarked on a robust outreach campaign across four diverse communities within the Freetown area.
The initiative targeted both bustling urban neighborhoods and serene rural locales, reflecting a commitment to inclusivity and broad engagement.
The campaign aims to shed light on the critical importance of the proposed bill and its pivotal role in fostering a democratic society.
As one of Sierra Leone’s leading organizations in human rights and public policy, CHRDI is dedicated to safeguarding individual rights, with a particular focus on issues such as data protection and privacy.
Through direct engagement with local communities, CHRDI has worked to foster meaningful dialogue about the draft legislation.
The organization emphasized the growing significance of data protection in an increasingly digital world, highlighting how the bill seeks to secure personal information and protect citizens from potential misuse of their data.
The outreach activities also aimed to empower residents with knowledge, encouraging them to actively participate in conversations surrounding data privacy. C
HRDI underscored the importance of public involvement in shaping policies that directly impact their lives, advocating for collective action to ensure the enactment of comprehensive and effective data protection measures.
