Update on RightsCon 2026
Following the host government’s announcement that RightsCon 2026 has been postponed, and subsequent guidance from the organizers advising against travel to Lusaka, all Internet Society and Internet Society Foundation–organized events will no longer take place as planned.
We were looking forward to engaging with participants from across the digital rights ecosystem. We remain committed to this community and to our partnership with Access Now, and will continue collaborating with partners worldwide to advance a safer, more open, and globally connected Internet.
We look forward to future opportunities to engage, advance shared goals, and strengthen our collective impact.
