SUMMARY:1st PERSONA public Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Towards a comprehensive method for impact assessment of\nno-gate crossing technologies at European borders\nBrussels\, 26 June 2019\nVrije Universiteit Brussel – Institute for European Studies\nPleinlaan 5\, 1050 Brussels\nThe purpose of this workshop is to present and gather feedback on the preliminary results of the EU funded research project PERSONA. PERSONA’s main goal is to design and establish a unified and tailored impact assessment method to appropriately evaluate the societal consequences of state-of-theart\nborder-controlling technologies and to ensure that these solutions meet the requirements and expectations of both\, governments\, including law enforcement authorities\, and individuals crossing (external) European borders. The project’s consortium periodically seeks feedback by\, inter alia\,\norganizing three workshops. \nDuring the first workshop\, the participants will attend two keynote speeches by experts in the area of ethics and technology. Two roundtables will follow\, presenting the first results of the project with a view to seek feedback. The first roundtable will be on a set of defined use cases and field pilots which\nwill be assessed within the PERSONA project. To simplify\, a use case is the detailed description (in a form of a storyline) of a specific no-gate crossing action that takes place in a given scenario (e.g. airport or open border); field pilots instead are small scale actual deployment of such use cases to test\nthem (e.g. simulating an airport border crossing points with volunteers). The second roundtable will be on the draft method of assessment to be used for these purposes. A discussion with the audience will follow.\nThis workshop provides an opportunity to meet with different stakeholders (e.g. law enforcement authorities\, academics\, technical experts) to get insights into the latest border-less crossing technologies and the methods to assess their impacts. Furthermore\, it allows to be directly involved in the development of the project\, by e.g. sharing key contributions. \nAgenda\n17:00 – 17:10: Welcome\, chairperson’s opening remarks\, short presentation of the project\nChairman: Simone Casiraghi\, Vrije Universiteit Brussel \n17:10 – 17:20: Keynote speech: The ethical border gate?\nProf. J.

Gkritzapis\, Hellenic Police Headquarters\nDr. Sebastian Weydner-Volkmann\, University of Freiburg\nDr. Jörgen Ahlberg\, Termisk Systemteknik AB \n18:00 – 18:10: Discussion \n18:10 – 18:40: Roundtable II: a draft of generic method for assessing impacts of initiatives on societal concerns\nModerator: Dariusz Kloza\, Vrije Universiteit Brussel\nPanel:\nMelanie Labour\, National University of Ireland\, Maynooth\nProf. Dr. Ina Schiering\, Ostfalia Univeristy of Applied Sciences\nKaterina Demetzou\, Radboud University\, Nijmegen\nDr. Ledion Krisafi\, Albanian Institute for International Studies \n18:40 – 18:50: Discussion \n18:50 – 19:00: Keynote speech: Analysis of non-intrusive intelligent border management systems and on-the-fly biometric machine intelligence\nDr. Krishna Chandramouli\, Venaka Media Limited \n19:00 – 19:10: Q&A with the keynote speaker \n19:10 – 19:15: Chairman’s closing remarks \n19:15 – 19:45: Reception drinks \nThe language of the event will be English.\nParticipation is free of charge\, yet – due to limited number of places\, registration is required. Please register by sending an e-mail to Ioulia.Konstantinou@vub.be prior to 14 June 2019.\nA draft working paper will be distributed among registered participants shortly before the event.\nThe workshop is co-organised by VUB\, CEL and QMUL\, and held in conjunction with the 4th Summer School of the Brussels Privacy Hub. \nWe look forward to seeing you there!\n
