Mustapha Lawal - The internet is a public good. Governance must be shared. This video is a call to those who shape the digital world. It challenges closed decision-making and demands shared digital governance. Participation must mean real power, not symbolic consultation. Affordable access is a rights issue, not a technical afterthought. Transparency, accountability, and open algorithms are non-negotiable. Security must protect people without sacrificing freedom or dignity. The internet is a public good, and its future must be just and inclusive. The video was inspired by the CADE Youth Voices for digital rights programme manifesto which you can read here: https://www.forus-international.org/en/campaigns?modal_page=pdf&modal_detail_id=youth-manifesto-for-digital-rights Disclaimer: This video was co-funded by the European Union.
