Deep Dive into Human Rights and Data Protection

Human rights and data protection are essential concepts that are increasingly important in the digital age. As technology continues to evolve, it is important for individuals, organizations, and governments to be aware of the potential risks and to take steps to protect both human rights and personal data. In recent years, there has been an increasing recognition of the link between human rights and data protection. This is because the collection, use, and processing of personal data can have a significant impact on people's human rights.

During this deep-dive workshop, we will explore:

• The landscape of data protection laws and regulations that prioritize human rights

• How data protection laws compare internationally and what’s new or evolving with the data protection laws in Europe

• Taking a human-rights based approach to data

• Understanding the current landscape of digital privacy legislation

• Addressing the exploitation of personal data
