Strengthening cybersecurity, a free, open and secure cyberspace and social development with Uri Rosenthal

This paper encourages stakeholders involved in EU external digital policy and actions to prioritise a people-centred approach by developing concrete frameworks, guidance, and tools to support its implementation and to evaluate and report on its impact. This approach, we believe, is a key concept to translate commitments into action and ensure digital equality for all!
