Call for Workshops Submission

Workshops at CPDP.ai have become extremely popular. They are well-attended interactive learning sessions, where organisers engage and actively share their expertise with the inspiring and energising CPDP audience. Organising a workshop is only possible by applying through our open call.  

CPDP.ai 2025 invites workshops that are interactive and participatory, designed to complement the panel programme by addressing the same critical themes - regulation, data protection and privacy, artificial intelligence… - but through more dynamic and innovative formats. While panels focus on expert presentations and debates, workshops should emphasise interactivity, fostering meaningful dialogue on the role of data protection in safeguarding fundamental rights and addressing unaccountable or discriminatory uses of personal data.

Workshop organisers should aim for a reciprocal learning experience, creating opportunities to learn from participants as much as participants learn from them. A wide range of formats is welcome in this context, including debates, roundtables, and creative activities, provided they clearly differentiate from the traditional panel formats and encourage active participation. Proposals must directly relate to the themes outlined in the Call for Panels and explore fresh perspectives on privacy and data protection in a rapidly digitising world.

Workshops are open to a wide range of stakeholders, including academics, industry professionals, policymakers, civil society organisations, and NGOs. Please note that different criteria apply to non-profit and for-profit organisations. Proposals may be submitted independently by non-profit organisations, while commercial organisations must be affiliated with CPDP.ai 2025 as a sponsor to organise a workshop. Further details will be provided once you begin the submission process by selecting “Submit your panel” below.

Please note that workshop can only be organised by registered conference attendees. Standard registration fees apply (Details can be found on the conference website).
