EngageMedia, in partnership with the Southeast Asia Freedom of Expression Network (SAFENet), will hold a two-day digital rights forum in Jakarta, Indonesia to discuss key issues in the country’s digital rights landscape.
| Date | 24-25 November 2022 |
| Time | 10.00-15.30 WIB |
| Place | WU Hub Coworking Space Sabang Jalan Haji Agus Salim No.53 Kebon Sirih (near Biskuit Khong Guan store) Maps |
The event is part of the four digital rights country forums to be held throughout 2022, leading up to the three-day Asia-Pacific Digital Rights Forum to be held in January 2023 and the Asia-Pacific Digital Rights Festival in May 2023.
The forum will be a space for human and digital rights advocates to discuss and collaborate on solutions to crucial digital rights issues, such as:
-
- Implementation of laws related to the digital space (PDP Law, ITE Law)
- Online gender-based violence (KBGO)
- Youth and social media activism
- Education on the use of digital technology
- Dis/misinformation and the role of political influencers/buzzers
- Unlawful digital search and seizure
- Internet censorship monitoring (iMAP) and information control
- Etc.
The forum will also feature a screening of the documentary Lara Beragama Di Mayantara (The Hurtful Religious Cyberspace), which scrutinises the religious-based discrimination faced by adherents of indigenous religions. The film was produced by EngageMedia in partnership with production house WatchDoc.
The forum is free and open to the public; however, the number of participants will be limited. The event will be conducted entirely in the Indonesian language.
Interested participants can sign up through the form at the bottom of this page. EngageMedia will contact confirmed attendees via email.

The opening plenary will critically examine the forms of public participation in the digital space. The pandemic has increased mis- and disinformation and with it the role of political buzzers, who are supported by the political elite, and whose heightened role is closely related to Indonesia’s culture of secrecy and lack of meaningful political participation. This session will examine other reasons that enable buzzers and mis- and disinformation to flourish in Indonesia’s cyberspace.
On Day 2, the closing plenary session will focus on strengthening digital rights activism in Indonesia based on the issues raised during the event. This session aims to strengthen networks among civil society members and unlock potential collaborations to address the digital rights challenges in Indonesia.
