The Digital Futures Commission has now concluded. Our new project is the Digital Futures for Children centre, joint with 5Rights Foundation and London School of Economics and Political Science.

Guidance for innovators

To embed children’s best interests in the design and development of digital products and services, we map existing and emerging rights-based and value-sensitive guidance. Combined with consultations with children, industry and other relevant actors, and tested through industry case studies, the outcome will be practical child rights-respecting guidance for digital innovators.

Child Rights by Design

Child Rights by Design is a principled vision to inspire innovators to realise children’s rights in their digital products and services. This design guide provides practical pathways and resources for implementing the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) in relation to the digital environment according to the Committee on the Rights of the Child’s General Comment No. 25.
