Tech This Out!

Children and young people take centre stage in 5Rights’ first ever podcast, entirely led by youth.

About the podcast

5Rights is dedicated to creating spaces where young people can share their thoughts, concerns and ideas about the digital world. Now, we are bringing their voices straight to you. 

Our young podcast hosts decide who to interview, delve into the complexities of technology and share their hopes, fears, and visions for the future of the digital world. Check out new episodes every last Thursday of the month!

Can we build a digital world children can trust?

Tech connects us with family and friends, entertains us and opens up a world of possibilities. It also comes with serious risks, especially for young people. In our first ever episode, author and youth advocate Nidhi chats with human rights activist Chisako from Japan and UN Youth Representative Gavin from Australia about building an online world that is safe by design. 

Who can design digital spaces that empower youth?

Tech is a constant in children’s lives but as mental health concerns rise, can we create a safer digital world? And who should lead the charge? Activist Haydn is joined by Zamaan Qureshi, Co-Chair of the Design It For Us coalition, to dig into the critical role of tech companies and governments in designing platforms and services that uplift young minds.

Every last Thursday of the month, one of our Youth Ambassadors takes the mic to interview leading experts and thoughts leaders from across the world. Together, they unpack what it means to be a child online and discuss solutions that governments, tech companies and institutions can implement to ensure every child feels safe, protected and empowered online.
