We are looking forward to our online sessions on the Governance of Non Personal Data, being held in partnership with the Centre for Communication Governance (NLU-Delhi). We are hosting these sessions on August 6 and 7, a week before the August 13 deadline for submitting comments to the government on the draft Non Personal Data Governance Framework.
We are doing this across two days, because we felt that, given the details in the report, it required a more in-depth discussion (and debate), and a single session wouldn’t do it justice.
The discussions are open to a select list of invitees to observe, comment and pose questions to the speakers, but you can apply to attend these sessions.
Along with our agenda and sessions details, we have a reading list below for context.
