Final workshop of the DATAFACE project
Online
June 8, 2023 from 14:00 to 17:30 CEST

The European Association for Biometrics (EAB) is hosting a workshop organized in cooperation with Catherine Jasserand, a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for IT& IP law (CiTiP) at KU Leuven and part of the Biometric Law Lab established by Professor Els Kindt.

DATAFACE investigates the use of facial recognition in public spaces for surveillance purposes and the impact on the rights to privacy and data protection, based on a country trend and a technical analysis of the systems.

This workshop assists in gaining insights into the project’s objectives, engaging in discussion, and explore whether a legitimate and proportionate use of facial recognition technology can be found, in balance with individuals’ fundamental rights.

The workshops is free to attend but registration is required.
