Annex
4. Life, liberty and security of person
The right to life, liberty and security of person concerns freedom from physical harm and confinement.
For Meta, respecting this human right includes mitigating the risk that content may provoke harm, including
risks of violence and human trafficking, state-sponsored online threats, and non-state groups engaged in,
or advocating for, violence or hate.
Examples of potential inherent salient
human rights risks identified in CSRA
Bad actors who:
• Exploit Meta services and apps to coordinate
online or offline harm
• Misuse services and apps for cyber-attacks
or phishing
• Threaten and harass human rights defenders,
activists and other vulnerable groups
Examples of how Meta addressed
the potential risks in 2025
Through deep research and partner consultations,
Meta identified a potential heightened risk of
child soldier recruitment in Sudan and developed
youth safety messaging in Arabic, French and
English customized for the region. In November
2025, Meta launched two complementary
campaigns: a quick promotion delivered to
approximately 1 million Sudanese youths (aged
13–18) on Facebook and Instagram, and an
interactive custom message pop-up delivered
to approximately 40,000 youths connected to
Strategic Network Disruptions. Messages warned
about recruitment risks and directed the youths to
external safety resources.
