台灣數位人權之國際新篇章？――全球數位人權大會RightsCon 2025之台灣觀察

Taiwan’s Chapter in Global Digital Rights: Observations from RightsCon 2025

全球數位人權大會（RightsCon）由國際非營利組織Access Now主辦，自2011年起每年舉辦，至今已成為全球規模最大、影響最廣的數位人權年度盛會。2025年2月，RightsCon選定台北作為其首度在東亞的舉辦地，象徵國際對台灣在數位民主與人權議題上的關注與肯定。
本文為一位台灣數位人權倡議組織工作者對此大會的觀察，並試圖梳理台灣在這場國際對話中的位置與角色。文章共分三部分：首先介紹本屆RightsCon如何在會議設計上體現對與會者隱私與多元參與的重視；其次呈現主辦方與台灣政府各自欲凸顯的數位人權重點；最後，聚焦台灣公民社會於會中所展開的倡議工作，對照其與官方論述間的異同，並點出對於台灣鞏固數位人權最應關注的議題。

The global digital rights conference RightsCon, organized annually by the organization Access Now since 2011, has become the world’s largest and most influential forum dedicated to digital rights. In February 2025, RightsCon selected Taipei as its first-ever host city in East Asia—an event that signifies the international community’s growing attention to, and recognition of Taiwan’s role in digital democracy and human rights.
This article presents the observations of a practitioner from a Taiwanese digital rights advocacy organization and seeks to examine Taiwan’s position and role within this international dialogue. The article is divided into three parts: first, it examines how RightsCon was designed to prioritize participant privacy and inclusive engagement; second, it presents the key digital rights issues emphasized by both the conference organizers and the Taiwanese government; and finally, it focuses on the advocacy efforts of Taiwanese civil society at the conference, analyzing the convergences and tensions between civil society and government narratives, while identifying the most pressing issues for advancing digital rights in Taiwan.
