The Youth Digital Rights Summit brings together young people from across Canada to shape the future of digital policy. Grounded in lived experience, human rights, and collective action, the Summit centres youth as experts in addressing online harms and advancing rights-respecting digital governance. Across two days, youth will launch and advance the National Youth Digital Rights Blueprint, engage directly with policymakers and decision-makers, and develop concrete strategies to move from vision to action. Benefits include: - Launch of a National Youth Digital Rights Blueprint on Parliament Hill - Networking with MPs, Senators, and policy leaders - Expert roundtables with legal, tech, and trauma‑informed educators - Youth‑led strategy circles to map advocacy priorities - Creative resistance sessions (storytelling, art, spoken word, digital exhibitions) - Wellness and peer support spaces (quiet room, creative breaks)
