Call for Participation. We seek a balanced group, composed of social scientists, technologists, designers, legal and policy experts, and others with demonstrable interest or experience in privacy-aware or identity-management technologies in existing or emerging digital environments.

Participants will be selected based on position papers submitted prior to the workshop. Proposals should be no more than 2500 words in length, and should address the following:

  1. Frame your area of work (problem area, target population, context of work), and list some of the constraints that you and your target population have to deal with.
  2. What are the main privacy concerns of your target population?
  3. What are the privacy issues that you are concerned with in your work?
  4. Describe your approach to addressing the problems you have identified?
  5. What are your measures of privacy, and/or exposures and risk?
  6. Within your field, what do you consider to be the seminal works related to this issue?

Our main objective is to ensure both a good breadth as well as depth in terms of the represented disciplines and approaches. The workshop seeks to broaden people's horizons and provide an opportunity to discuss finer points of your work. We want the workshop to create connections across fields so more interdisciplinary work can take place.
