5Rights and IEEE SA launch a new standard for designing digital services with children in mind.
5Rights Foundation and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standards Association (IEEE SA) have collaborated to develop the pioneering IEEE 2089-2021 Standard for Age Appropriate Digital Service Framework. The Standard introduces practical steps that companies can follow to design digital products and services that are age appropriate.
This represents an important milestone in equipping designers with the tools they need to build the digital world that children and young people deserve. It will support global efforts from regulators and organisations seeking to ensure that young people are catered for in the digital world.
The Standard is being made available free of charge so that any organisation involved in the design of digital products and services can benefit from this framework, and put young people’s best interests ahead of commercial ones in the digital world.
