Association for Progressive Communications

A joint stakeholder report on human rights in the digital context in Uganda has been submitted for the country's Universal Periodic Review at the 54th session of the UN Human Rights Council process. The report, compiled by civil society groups led by the Association for Progressive Communications, assesses Uganda's record on internet freedom, digital expression and online rights ahead of the review.

Uganda's human rights situation in the digital sphere is the focus of a new summary by the Association for Progressive Communications, which examines how rights such as privacy, free expression and access to information are affected online. The organisation highlights growing concerns over digital surveillance, internet restrictions and the treatment of activists and journalists in the country.
