Movie screening and live discussion. More details will follow soon.
We like to invite you to join our workshop ‘You are Your profile’ where we dive into today's status of social protection online and where we debate the future of our lives in an online connected society. What does it mean to have your person data exposed constantly when active online? What are the considerations you make when sharing your information with others online? Are you in control of your person data and should we have more online tools to enable us? By showing you a selection of fragments from the documentary 'You are Your profile’, all participants will be engaged to join the discussion together with the panel members.
In preparation for this session, we recommend watching the video's on https://youareyourprofile.org/katowice.
Topics of the session:
- Modern cities & digital citizenship - ‘Technology developments in cities in general and specifically the implications for interactions of citizens and the usage of (person) data of citizens.’
- Technological ethics - ‘The rise of (AI driven) (online) bots and how we as humans are making use of (good or bad) these technologies.’
- Human rights online - ‘How do we make sure our basic human rights like human dignity and privacy are protected when online in relation to the use of our person data.’
- Forward considerations - ‘Exploring our considerations for the future when it comes to the use of person data.’
In preparation for this session, we recommend watching the video's on https://youareyourprofile.org/katowice.
