16.2
16.7
Targets: Our proposal seeks focus in the ways of how violence against children can be ended (16.2). In that sense, we aim to provoke a debate in our encryption is one of the ways that children can be safe online, ensuring their right of privacy, data protection, freedom of speech and other human rights, therefore, helping to end violence against children. Also, our objective it is to reflect how the decision-making levels (16.7) can ensure all voices be heard, including children's perspective about the problem.
The lightning talk will be carried out in two stages. First, the speaker will give a fifteen-minute presentation on the problem, presenting the central points related to the main question, therefore bringing inputs for the discussion. Then, another fourteen minutes will be available for Q&A in two blocks, with three questions of one minute each, leaving four minutes for answers.

The session will focus on the current debate in Brazil related to the protection of children and adolescents which can threaten strong encryption in the country and region. The biggest discussions related to the weakening of encryption for the sake of “youth safety”over the last few years have been centered on narratives built mainly in regions such as the United States and Europe, in the western part of the globe, as well as in India in the eastern part of the world.
Despite being a relevant matter in certain countries, so far, the debates did not find resonance in the narratives employed to weaken encryption in Brazil. In this way, our session will seek to answer, through the analysis of discursive mechanisms, the following question: "How can the debate on encryption weakening, justified by the defense of children and adolescents, reach Brazil, considering the advance of extremism and the increase in platform regulation proposals in the region?”
The speaker will have fifteen minutes to expose their point of view about the problem. After that we will have a Q&A in two blocks of seven minutes. Will be avaliable in each block one question to onsite participants and one question to online participants and the other one will be avaliable to the first participant of request the floor to propose a question or intervention.
