We are organising a workshop for an innovative digital identity wallet in the framework of the PRIVÉ project

Homo Digitalis is a proud partner of the PRIVÉ project!

On 13 February at 18.00, we will host a workshop to present the solution developed within the project and have it evaluated by privacy-conscious end-users:

The EUDI wallet will revolutionise the way digital identity is handled in Europe. But how do we achieve widespread user adoption? Are privacy and trust important factors and are they sufficiently taken into account in the current EUDI architecture?

In response to these pressing questions, the PRIVÉ project is pleased to announce a webinar (hybrid) on 13 February 2024. This event will present an innovative solution for digital identity wallets that not only emphasizes strong privacy mechanisms, but also features seamless integration with the eIDAS and GDPR frameworks, setting a new benchmark for digital identity solutions.

13.02.2024, 18:00 Athens time

Three parallel sessions simultaneously:

-Athens.

-HERAKLEIO: at Bizrupt, Vikelas 34-36.

-Online session via Zoom

 

This webinar offers a unique, hands-on experience with PRIVÉ Wallet, inviting participants to engage directly with the technology through a real-life implementation scenario. We invite you to be part of its evolution. Your feedback on the usability of the wallet and your insights into the factors influencing the adoption of EUDI wallets by European citizens will be invaluable.

Join us in shaping the future of digital identity in Europe – a future where your identity is secure, your privacy is respected and your trust is earned.

Our educational talk on AI & border management

Last month, we received an invitation from the Greek Council for Refugees and the European Network Against Racism Aisbl (ENAR) to speak at the European Parliament Office in Greece about Homo Digitalis’ actions in the field of migration and border management, as well as about the relevant provisions of the proposed EU regulation on AI!

It was a great pleasure to exchange ideas and views with representatives of CSOs, journalists, academics and other stakeholders who were present as well as to discuss the #ProtectNotSurveil campaign of European Digital Rights, Access Now, Platform for Undocumented Migrants (PICUM) and Refugee Law Lab, of which we are members!

We would like to thank the organizers for the great cooperation! Our Board Secretary, Eleftherios Chelioudakis, represented us, presenting our work at the event.
