‘DSA in Perspective’ Seminar Series
Our series of seminars offers an academic perspective on these developments, to unpack the complex underlying issues of this forthcoming legislative package, and discuss its possible implications.
Organised by the new Centre on Digitalisation, Democracy and Innovation (CD2I) at VUB-IES in collaboration with the Chair Fundamental Rights and the Digital Transformation at VUB-LSTS and the Brussels Privacy Hub, this series of seminars brings leading academic speakers, from different horizons, to present their latest research and analysis on content moderation, intermediary liabilities, competition rules and the regulation of internet platforms.
The series hosts both experienced and leading thinkers, as well as younger scholars who have written distinguished papers. In each one hour seminar, the scholars present their cutting-edge insights, followed by a brief discussion with the series hosts and ample time for interaction with the public.
Our virtual seminars will run monthly, from October 2020 onwards.
