The Dubai Declaration on OER

2019 UNESCO Recommendation on OER

Action Area 2 – Supportive Policy
Data Privacy and Protection

As OER platforms increasingly integrate digital learning technologies, policies must ensure the protection of user data and privacy. Guidelines should be established for the ethical collection, storage, and use of learner data while ensuring compliance with international data protection standards such as the GDPR. Training programs should also raise awareness among educators and students on digital rights and cybersecurity.
