AlSur has established a collaboration with the Pulitzer Center under its South to South AI Accountability CoLab initiative.

This is a program that seeks to strengthen the connection between artificial intelligence (AI) accountability journalism and civil society engagement in the Global South. This initiative recognizes that, without proactive multi-stakeholder engagement, there is a significant risk that AI will replicate historical patterns of inequality, injustice and bias.

In the framework of the WSIS+20 review process, the AlSur consortium sent its contributions which can be reviewed here.

RightsCon is one of the world’s most important events on digital rights and technology. Each year, it brings together activists, academics, civil society organizations, and technology experts to discuss challenges and advancements in the protection of human rights in the digital age. In 2025, this space becomes even more relevant in a context where fundamental rights, both in physical and digital environments, are under threat in many parts of the world—Latin America being no exception.

The past year 2024 left us with more shadows than lights with respect to the balance of human rights in digital environments.  It was a year marked by multiple violations in political and social conflicts, setbacks in the fulfillment of fundamental rights and greater tensions between States and platforms. It was also marked by the drafting of several international instruments such as the Global Digital Pact (GDC) and the International Convention against Cybercrime - both of which have several aspects that can be criticized and whose reasons we argue below.

At the end of September, the Summit of the Future took place, an event convened by the United Nations to establish a common agenda of global agreements on various issues, including an “open, free and secure” digital future for all people.
