During this session, we will launch the Red Card on Digital Rights campaign and inform attendees about its objective and different outputs. We will share brief findings from a new SMEX report that used the RDR methodology to assess the privacy and security policies of the Hayya App, required for spectators to enter Qatar and stadiums during the World Cup. Finally, we will conclude by outlining how human rights defenders, organizations, activists, journalists and others can join the campaign.
