In Helsinki, Kulttuuritalo (Sturenkatu 4), on August 29th – 31st.
Because the event has become an intensive gathering for the global community of human-centric personal data proponents, and there’s a lot going on to hear and see!
Everybody interested in the future and present of personal data. In 2017 there were over 800 participants to the MyData conference, with various backgrounds: companies 50%, government 20%, NGOs 10%, research & education 10% hackers & activists 10%. The same groups (and more) are expected in 2018.
The MyData movement is becoming more and more a community-driven process on its own, as a “network of networks” of MyData local hubs, and hence also the programme development follows community-curated model.
Topic tracks organically grew out of previous conferences (2016, 2017), MyData Declaration goals and MyData Global network action areas. Track teams have been forming since immediately after end of MyData 2017, working towards We’re now happy to announce Call for Proposals to populate those 7 tracks with presentations, panel talks, hands-on sessions, and what have you!
The Call for Proposals will open on February 7th and remain open until April 5th.
We use Trello as the tool for managing proposals we receive. When you fill in the submission form your proposal is sent to the programme team and becomes visible to others who have submitted ideas. You can also join the Trello (contact) board so that you can refine your proposal after submission based on the questions and ideas from others. You can submit a first draft quickly and come back later bearing in mind that the deadline for the final submissions is 5th April 2018.
