Programme details
This panel discussion aims to explore how digital co-creation can contribute to international peace and the protection of human rights, based on a hypothesis regarding the vision for 2050. In particular, it will focus on proposals for solutions related to peace and human rights from youth leaders in the Global South, highlighting the role of digital technologies.
Specifically, youth will discuss complex issues such as the Palestinian and regional conflicts and refugee crises in Africa, and information and educational disparities in absolute poverty.
The program will begin with a moderator raising issues related to digital technologies and international peace and human rights, followed by a presentation of the hypothesis for the future vision of 2050. The panel presentation by guest youth leaders from the Global South will share specific examples of the utilization of digital technologies, poverty disparities, human rights and security issues arising from conflicts, and competition for resources.
Subsequently, through discussions among the panelists, the perspectives of young people on modern conflict resolution and visions for the future through digital co-creation will be debated. Based on the Q&A session for exchanges of opinions among participants, the proposed action plans will be summarized, and the outcomes of the panel discussion will be concluded.
