The Center affirms that in our globalized century, the right to education is inseparable from the right to digital safety. 

Learning now takes place within AI-enhanced ecosystems that teach, assess, and mediate human interaction. Yet the same algorithms that inform can also injure — transforming ridicule, disinformation, and deepfakes into systemic digital violence that follows children and teachers across platforms and borders.

​

Cyber-violence has evolved beyond isolated bullying into a continuum of algorithmically amplified harm —

harassment, humiliation, non-consensual imagery, identity theft, and misinformation sustained by algorithmic visibility. In juridical terms, it violates the right to education, dignity, and freedom from degrading treatment, demanding proactive regulation, institutional accountability, and algorithmic traceability.

​

AI must therefore be governed not only as a tool of instruction but as an instrument of protection —

capable of detecting coordinated harassment, mapping linguistic aggression, identifying synthetic content, and neutralising escalation before harm takes root.

​

Guided by §41(d) of UNESCO’s Recommendation, the Global AI Center POLLYPRIANY calls for:​

💠 Digital literacy as a constitutional educational right — empowering learners and educators to recognise manipulation and algorithmic bias.
💠 AI safety-by-design — provenance-by-default, transparent deepfake labelling, and human oversight.
💠 Binding duty of care — rapid takedowns, cross-platform accountability, and accessible victim redress.

​

Cyber-violence is a transnational human-rights issue,

demanding a jurisprudence of prevention. Governed through law and ethics, AI must become the guardian infrastructure of truth and empathy — ensuring that no deepfake outlives the truth, and no learner or teacher is expelled from education by digital harm.

The Global AI Center POLLYPRIANY extends its gratitude to UNESCO for convening this vital consultation and to all youth participants and experts whose engagement strengthens our collective mission: to make education not only inclusive and innovative, but also anchored in law, ethics, and human dignity.
