SUMMARY:#SciDipTalks | Technology at the service of global health crises: Threats and opportunities
DESCRIPTION:SciTech DiploHub has partnered with other organisations to put forward 5 online sessions with leading world experts (#SciDipTalks) that will explore the role of international cooperation in the current crisis; the European response to COVID-19; the impact of cities\, and particularly Barcelona\, in global mitigation efforts; the responses to pandemics in Iberoamerica; and\, the threats and opportunities of new technologies. This is the fifth event of the #SciDipTalks series. DiploFoundation’s Katharina Höne will be among the speakers. \nAbout this webinar\nTechnology and data-driven solutions have been at the forefront of successful national responses to the current COVID-19 crisis.

This session will address the role of technology in advancing global health\, with in-depth discussions about the potential impact of digital strategies on data privacy and human rights. It will also reflect upon the role technology plays during health crises\, and the responsibility of digital platforms. \nThe event will take place on Monday\, 11th May 2020 at 12:00 EDT\, online. \nSpeakers for this event include: \n\nKathleen Carley (Professor in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University)\nXavier Ferràs (Associate Professor at ESADE Business School)\nKatharina Höne (Senior Researcher in diplomacy and new technology at DiploFoundation)\nElizabeth M. Renieris (Fellow at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University)\nModerator: Esther Paniagua (Science and Technology Journalist)\n\nFor more information about the event and to register\, visit the dedicated webpage.

SUMMARY:The Future of Meetings - online conference
DESCRIPTION:The Coronavirus crisis is changing how we meet and interact\, ushering in new ways of organising conferences and other events. Hybrid meetings\, which combine virtual and face-to-face interaction\, will become the norm. \nThe Future of Meetings conference will address the emerging practices in organising and running meetings. Can we fit online and onsite events into the same policy process? How can we moderate online sessions effectively? Can we integrate corridor chats into formal virtual meetings? What will the future bring for diplomatic protocol and procedures? \nWe invite you to join the discussion\, organised within 20 sessions and 5 parallel tracks (technology\, security\, moderation\, behaviour\, and diplomacy). \nThis innovative online conference builds on Diplo’s 20-year-long experience in online meetings\, teaching\, intensive research\, and running online events. (visit the Conference Tech Lab). \nThe ways in which we meet\, consult\, and negotiate will shape the future of diplomacy\, governance\, and our society as a whole. \nJoin us for this timely discussion! \nFor more information and to register\, visit the dedicated page!
