DNS abuse and Human Rights Impact Assessment

[farzaneh badii]

Hi everyone,

I have prepared the attached slides. I have also put it in the Google doc
here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l-hLiIJOMwORRx2QTbuJVpiHLyIOt3p0oQ-Ee-LEUMA/edit?usp=sharing
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l-hLiIJOMwORRx2QTbuJVpiHLyIOt3p0oQ-Ee-LEUMA/edit?usp=sharing>

 Please comment but the gist of it is as below:
What is a human rights impact assessment?
HRIA process at a high level
How can we do HRIA in the field of DNS Abuse
Improving the DNS Abuse amendments implementation through HRIA
Step by step HRIA: example of domain name suspension
Recommendations

 Best regards,


Farzaneh
