🎙️ Let's Talk Digital – Season 2 | Episode 2

Digital Frontlines: Young People, Online Harm, and Surveillance in Ghana As Ghana strengthens its digital security and cybercrime efforts, an important question remains: Are young people becoming safer online—or simply feeling more watched? In this episode of Let's Talk Digital, our panel explores the complex relationship between digital safety, surveillance, privacy, and human rights. From online harassment and cyberbullying to state monitoring, stigma, and the digital divide, we examine how digital policies are shaping the everyday experiences of young Ghanaians. Our discussion asks critical questions: 🔹 Does surveillance prevent online harm or create fear? 🔹 Why do many young people remain silent about online abuse? 🔹 How does monitoring affect people living with HIV, LGBTQ+ persons, women, and other marginalised communities? 🔹 Where should the balance lie between privacy and protection? 🔹 What would a truly youth-centred digital safety system look like?
