Be they AI systems, political systems, socio-technical systems, or any other system, one can blame them, try to understand them, fight them or perhaps reshape them.
The 2024 Privacy Camp edition invites for investigations into systems that shape the field of privacy and digital rights. We encourage looking into different understanding of what counts as a system, into different types of systems (structural, political, institutional, socio-technical) and the various logics underwriting them, that have enabled many of the inequalities and injustices today. More, we invite discussions and propositions about what systemic and transformative change can look like.
Change is in the air – maybe.
2024 marks the year of European elections and thus that of new Members in the European Parliament, and new European Commission taking the lead of the European Union (EU)’s executive powers.
We invite explorations to ways of imagining and thinking about transformative change in the context of 2024 as an electoral year, but also beyond 2024 and the realm of elections.
As surveillance has crept into many sectors of our lives, and privacy and data protection become transversal topics in many current debates, we ask:
Hence, we look forward to welcoming proposals that critically unpack those systems underpinning technology, law and society.
On one hand, this may include proposals that explore the roleof digital rights in relation to social, racial, climate and economic justice movements; extractive and exploitative labour practices in the use and development of technology; techno-solutionism in climate/environmental debates; surveillance and carceral technologies in law enforcement and border control; the creation and maintenance of public infrastructures, as well as elections integrity.
One the other hand, we also encourage critical conversations aroundspecific current and upcoming rules (e.g. concerning AI for predictive policing, generative AI, common data spaces such as the European Health Data Space, etc.), as well as data protection and GDPR enforcement, or around the efficiency of the systems enforcing EU and national law.
We seek proposals that explore new frames with which we can open up multiple sites of struggle, and in turn, the possibility of building solidarity across those sites, and work towards systemic and structural change.
In 2024, Privacy Camp’s Content Committee are: Andreea Belu (EDRi), Gloria González Fuster (LSTS, VUB), Rocco Bellanova (LSTS, VUB) and Jill Toh (UvA-IViR, and Racism and Technology Center).
