In recognition of International Day for Universal Access to Information (IDUAI), on 28 September, the online public forum will take stock of how internet-based and online information have influenced the ability of Thai citizens to exercise their democratic rights and to fully participate in civil society.
To commemorate IDUAI 2023, UNESCO, in partnership with Thailand Development Research Institute (TDRI) and Chulalongkorn University’s Faculty of Communication Arts, will host an online public event to take stock of access to information (ATI) in Thailand. This initiative will serve as a forum for multi-stakeholder engagement, including duty bearers and rights-holders, for the exchange and examination of how internet-based and online information have influenced the ability of Thai citizens to exercise their democratic rights. The online public seminar “The importance of the online space for access to information: Digital platforms and civic participation in Thailand” will take place on Thursday, 28 September 2023, 14.00 - 17.00 hrs.
