DRL Assessing the Human Rights Impact of Emerging Technologies

The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) announces an open competition for organizations interested in submitting applications for research on the impact of emerging technologies on human rights. In furtherance of U.S. government policy to "maintain U.S. leadership in emerging technologies" per the U.S. National Cyber Strategy, DRL seeks to support research initiatives that explore and assess the potential human rights impacts, opportunities, and threats of emerging technological innovations globally. DRL invites organizations interested in potential funding to submit proposals outlining program concepts that reflect this goal.
