Hate Speech & Discrimination

This month's policy briefing [https://protect-eu.mimecast.com/s/XyqDCYvJ5imLZqj1T0ZdyJ?domain=un.org] from António Guterres, Secretary General of the United Nations, set out a common agenda and code of conduct on Information Integrity on Digital Platforms [https://protect-eu.mimecast.com/s/052RCZVK0HA5RLX4sj-7mj?domain=un.org] ahead of next year's Summit of the Future.   In this episode of Conscious Thinking, our panel discusses the responsibility of the advertising industry to improve the protection of migrants and refugees from hate speech and discrimination.   Global conflict, climate change and economic hardship has resulted in higher migration and more displaced people than modern times has ever experienced. How can the ecosystem of advertising work harder to protect the societies in which it operates? With shifting responsibilities of the social media platforms is there a need for new regulation to enable businesses to more effectively regulate brand programmatic advertising? Should we harness the momentum between public and private infrastructures to jointly tackle some of these issues? Do we appoint dedicated agency brand safety ambassadors, to promote a less reactive and more joined up approach to hate speech, using their competence as storytellers?   This episode was recorded before the Migrant Boat disaster in Greece on the 18th June 2023 Our host Ete Davies, EMEA COO Dentsu Creative is joined by: Pia Oberoi - Head of Migration & Human Rights, United Nations Karen Middleton - Lecturer, Portsmouth University Callum Hood - Head of Research, Centre for Countering Digital Hate (CDDH) Matt Potter - Chief Content Officer, Dentsu   A Dentsu Creative Production for the Conscious Advertising Network.

Informed Consent - The Surveillance Economy

With an increasingly fragmented media landscape, what does the future hold for data privacy, transparency, and regulation? THE PHRASES "CREATOR ECONOMY" AND "EXPERIENCE ECONOMY" HAVE OFTEN BEEN USED TO DESCRIBE MODERN CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR AND HOW BRANDS DRIVE GROWTH IN THE 21ST CENTURY. HOWEVER, THE INFRASTRUCTURE POWERING EACH OF THESE 'ECONOMIES' AND MOST INFLUENCING HUMAN BEHAVIOUR (WITHOUT US KNOWING) IS DATA. SO, IN TRUTH ARE WE IN "THE SURVEILLANCE ECONOMY" AND AS OUR MEDIA LANDSCAPE CONTINUES TO BECOME MORE FRAGMENTED, SHOULD WE GIVE MORE CONSIDERATION TO CONSUMER DATA LITERACY AND REVIEW OUR CONTRACT WITH THEM? Joining Ete in this episode are: Ossie Bayram Country Director Ogury, Advertising Associations Director of policy Research Konrad Shek and Matt Potter Chief Content Officer Dentsu Creative and Author of We are all Targets.
