Given that India 2047 will be digital, defining responsibility frameworks were found to be extremely important in providing guardrails and redressal mechanisms for citizens, compliance with the existing laws and de-risking against future laws.
The CDR Framework is a superset of indicators that are mapped over practices in India, UK, USA, Brazil, Germany, France and Canada. Multiple stakeholder workshops later, there has emerged a consensus on the methodology being used and the indicators identified.
There are twelve broad areas that it covers: Security, Social Digital Responsibility, Sustainable Digital Responsibility, Economic Digital Responsibility, Technology, Risk Management, Human Resource, Grievance Redressal, Ethical Practices, Governance Practices, Multi-Language and Mental Health.
CDR stands at the forefront of modern business ethos, encompassing a broad spectrum of considerations ranging from data protection and cybersecurity to ethical technology deployment and societal impact.
