Neuro-Tech + Governance



Neuro-Tech + Governance 

Governments are considering how to regulate neurotechnology to protect human rights and address ethical, legal, and social challenges: 

Human rights

Neurotechnology can challenge human rights such as privacy, non-discrimination, and freedom of thought. For example, neurotechnology can collect sensitive neural information, which could lead to privacy risks. 

Vulnerable groups

Neurotechnology can pose significant risks to vulnerable groups, including criminal offenders, neurodivergent people, women, and people of color. 

Governance

Governance arrangements can help steer innovation towards social goals and values. For example, the OECD's Recommendation on Responsible Innovation in Neurotechnology helps governments and innovators address these challenges. 

Legislation

Some argue that specific and precise legislation is more effective than general proposals that amend constitutions. For example, Argentina's bill 0339-D-2022 requires prior consent and a judicial order before using neurotechnology in criminal proceedings. 

Neurorights

Some argue that new human rights pertaining to mental privacy, cognitive liberty, and mental integrity and psychological continuity are needed. Chile passed a neurorights law in 2021 to protect mental privacy. 

Neurotechnology can help treat conditions like depression, insomnia, and Parkinson's disease. However, its side effects are not well understood, and its implications have not been fully explored
