The ‘Principles for a Human Rights-Centred Application of the DSA’ call for the integration of global perspectives and respect for international human rights standards, recognizing that DSA has impacts beyond the EU. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/dsa-human-rights-alliance-publishes-principles-calling-dsa-enforcement-1
They emphasize the importance of cross-regional collaboration and empowerment of civil society organizations, particularly in light of shrinking civic space. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/dsa-human-rights-alliance-publishes-principles-calling-dsa-enforcement-1
The Principles also call for institutionalized dialogues between EU and non-EU stakeholders for upholding the rule of law in DSA enforcement, including by ensuring that non-EU-based civil society groups and researchers can engage on equal footing on rights-focused elements of the DSA. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/01/dsa-human-rights-alliance-publishes-principles-calling-dsa-enforcement-1
