Call for Papers CPDP2021 – Enforcing Rights in a Changing World

                Call for Papers CPDP2021  Enforcing Rights in a Changing World
<br>CPDP is an annual three-day conference devoted to privacy and data protection.
<br>The 14th edition of CPDP will be held on 27th to 29th January 2021 in
<br>Brussels.* Whilst a number of speakers are specifically invited by the
<br>conference, several slots remain open to application through an annual call
<br>for papers. The CPDP2021 Call for Papers is addressed to all researchers who
<br>wish to present their papers at the next Computers, Privacy and Data
<br>Protection conference.
<br>The submissions are split into two tracks. The first one is dedicated to
<br>experienced researchers (i.e. postdoctoral researchers, professors etc.),
<br>while the second one welcomes PhD students and other junior researchers.
<br>Contributions are welcome from all disciplines with perspectives on the themes
<br>of the conference. The dual-track structure of the CPDP2021 Call for Papers
<br>aims to meet the increasing interest of researchers  from all levels and from
<br>multiple disciplines  in CPDP and their expectations in terms of academic
<br>feedback and exchange.**
<br>Please check the submission instructions below and submit your contribution
<br>through the EasyChair conference system through the following
<br>link.
<br>The overarching theme of the 2021 edition is Enforcing Rights in a Changing
<br>World. CPDP thus takes as its focus the question on how humanity is going
<br>through a historical moment with a global pandemic reshaping our lives and the
<br>world we live in. Public health measures combined with tech solutionism are
<br>taking surveillance to the next level. Contact tracing apps and new
<br>functionalities of wearables are being introduced, while governments are
<br>discussing immunity passports and long-term border restrictions. The global
<br>economy is in the opening stages of a recession, what carries a risk that the
<br>inequalities will grow further in the aftermath of this pandemic. We are
<br>moving more and more of our lives online. Telemedicine and online classrooms
<br>are likely to become staples of everyday life. Amidst all these changes, is
<br>there also a change in the way we are looking at things and rethinking the
<br>possible? What will be the legacy of this pandemic on human rights including
<br>privacy and data protection? How do we enforce individual and collective
<br>rights in a changing world?
<br>CPDP2021 will serve as a platform to discuss, and seek answers, to these
<br>questions and many more.
<br>We welcome cutting edge papers in all areas related to technology, privacy and
<br>data protection, but particularly invite submissions that fit the general
<br>conference theme.
<br>
<br>RELEVANT FIELDS AND TOPICS
<br>The CPDP Scientific
<br>Committee invites
<br>papers in the fields of law, social sciences, philosophy and computer sciences
<br>(as well as other relevant fields). Multidisciplinary papers are especially
<br>welcome. In particular, this call aims to reach researchers whose works relate
<br>to new technologies, privacy and data protection. Selected researchers will
<br>have the opportunity to present their papers in the academic sessions of the
<br>conference. Although, the main theme highlighted this year is Enforcing
<br>Rights in a Changing World, we welcome any original topics related to the
<br>general themes of the conference.
<br>Follow this link for more information
<br>about the topics presented at previous editions of CPDP.
<br>In case of doubt regarding the suitability of a contribution for the
<br>conference, please contact Magda
<br>Brewczyska.

<br>Committee (and other independent
<br>reviewers where necessary) and will be commented upon by distinguished
<br>scholars. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be
<br>presented at the conference: at least one author of each accepted paper is
<br>required to register for the conference and to present the paper. Accepted
