| Moderate Positive — The Conversation's free-access academic journalism model and Article 19 strength (freedom of opinion/expression) drive moderate-to-strong HRCB. Privacy tracking (Article 12) creates mild drag. Climate mitigation advocacy frames environmental stability as foundational human right (Articles 25–27). No strong negative signals; majority coverage concentrated in information, education, and social protection domains. Stability reflects consistent platform-level commitments to knowledge democratization. Editorial
