Homo Digitalis' participation in CPDP 2024 was a great success
For another year, and consistently since 2019, Homo Digitalis was present at the internationally renowned Computers, Privacy & Data Protection (CPDP) conference in Brussels!
We are honored that the organizers chose us to participate in the conference podcast series, with our Director for AI & Human Rights, Lamprini Gyftokosta, analyzing our pending cases before the Data Protection Authority in Greece, and our significant successes so far!
Also, another very nice moments of ours at the event, is EDRi’s award from the Center for AI and Digital Policy (CAIDP) “AI Policy Leader in Civil Society” regarding our joint campaign ReclaimYourFace, of which Homo Digitalis is a co-founding member!
Of course, it is always unique for us to see our members actively participating in the conference and have a dynamic presence in discussions, panels and other events both with their Homo Digitalis hat and that of their professional capacity Thank you very much for proudly representing Homo Digitalis at this conference every year!!!
Participation in TechTalk Podcast
Last week we had the pleasure of participating in a very interesting, interdisciplinary discussion about Technology in the presentation of the new TechTalk technology podcast, where we discussed the topic of the first episode “What is Technology?”!
So how is technology designed, and how does it affect our lives? Is technology neutral? How can we regulate the exponential growth of technology after we’ve gotten used to it?
Elpida Vamvaka had the pleasure of having this discussion about Homo Digitalis with an excellent interlocutor Vasilis Vlachokyriakos, Professor at Newcastle University and founder of Open Lab Athens !
Thanks to Sociality and Open Lab Athens for the invitation! We look forward to the next ones! Read in detail what was discussed and listen to the first episode of the podcast here.
