On June 8th, 2023, the Director of AI-Regulation Chair, Professor Theodore Christakis will be speaking in a workshop on the regulation of facial recognition – “DATAFACE Workshop” – organised by Catherine Jasseran – postdoctoral researcher at the Center for IT& IP law (CiTiP) at KU Leuven and part of the Biometric Law Lab established by Professor Els Kindt – in cooperation with the European Association for Biometrics (EAB), which is a leading voice for digital ID and biometrics in Europe.

The DATAFACE project – funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship program – investigates the use of facial recognition in public spaces for surveillance purposes and the impact on the rights to privacy and data protection, based on a country trend and a technical analysis of the systems.

Professor Theodore Christakis, as well as other excellent researchers in the field, will cover issues going from the latest regulatory developments concerning the regulation of facial recognition in public spaces in Europe, to the state-of-the art of facial recognition (Associate Professor Kiran Rajan at the NTNU), the notion of public spaces (Assistant Professor Maša Galič at VU Amsterdam) and the United States’ approach on the issue (Merve Hickok, President of CAIDP).
