Hi to All,

I wanted to reach out and invite you to submit a proposal to organize a program session for this year’s RightsCon Silicon Valley 2016 (March 30-April 1, 2016).

As you know, it's an amazing event that brings together hundreds of folks working in tech, human rights, and freedom of expression. This year’s event will be better than ever, with three days of programming, exciting satellite events like the Crypto Summit, and potentially 1000 participants from across sectors. It’s the best opportunity to showcase your work in digital rights, connect with other leading experts, and most importantly, develop outcomes, best-practices, and policies that help defend and extend the digital rights of users at risk around the world.

You can submit your program session proposal on our website’s submission form https://rightscon.org/submission, and find more information about our session formats, the RightsCon style and our themes on the submission guide https://rightscon.org/submissionguide. I encourage you to submit a high quality proposal, as competition is steep, and we are developing a fantastic and compelling agenda for participants. That being said, organizers of program sessions will be eligible for discounts for tickets, so I highly encourage you to submit a proposal.

Please let me know if you have any questions, or would like to connect to discuss.

Best,
