4.1. Ecological justice is a central principle for the design of digital innovation systems. Policies and standards must reject green-washing, eliminate ecological harms and inequalities in corporate-controlled digital value chains, and mandate business models in digital products and services in line with the right to a clean, healthy, equitable, and sustainable environment.
4.2. The ‘precautionary principle’ from the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development must guide the pursuit of national data and AI policies and roadmaps. The right of the public to access information and participate in decisions about digital innovation, akin to the right enshrined in the Aarhus Convention on environmental matters, is critical.
4.3. The human rights and aspirations of young people, particularly those from the Global South, are vital to building just digital futures. Intra- and inter-generational equity requires meaningful participation of young people in shaping the digital world they will inherit. The Declaration on Future Generations needs to be upheld by state and non-state actors to secure a just and sustainable digital future.
