Symposium on Cybersecurity and Data Protection in Humanitarian Action

The second edition of the Symposium on Cybersecurity and Data Protection in Humanitarian Action will take place from 23 – 25 January 2024 at the European Convention Center in Luxembourg.

For the past decades, humanitarian organizations have had to adapt to and deal with rapid changes in our technology landscape. Digital technologies in particular carry various promises of improving the efficiency and effectiveness of humanitarian support. However, they also entail risks that humanitarians and their partners need to be prepared to mitigate.

ESPI Research Fellow, Clémence Poirier, will moderate the panel: “Safeguarding Humanitarian
Connectivity: The Issue of Dual-Use Satellites” on 24 January.
