Dear all
I need the green light to start contacting people, since time is running out and our efforts might soon look desperate 😉
Here some notes and tasks. In purple, what needs to be done
DAY 1 (invite only)
@IAS (confirmed)- 9-4pm (most likely starting with light lunch at 1130)
>> we need to define everything (programme, speakers, order catering)
5pm > public event + festive moment
@ LOCATION??
@Giulia Campaioli<mailto:g.campaioli at uva.nl>: what about Martin Tironi’s https://ecologiashibridas.cl/ (on our advisory board)?
DAY 2 (open)
09:30-10:00 - Arrival & Coffee
10:00–10:15 — Welcome & framing (Stefania)
10:15-11:00 — Introduction to the project (all)
11:00–12:15 — Keynote Block I (2 speakers)
12:15–13:15 — Networking lunch
13:15–14:15 — Keynote Block II (3-4 speakers)
14:15-14:45 - Lab demo
15:45-15:00 — Closing & borrel
@core at lists.datagovlab.net<mailto:core at lists.datagovlab.net>: what do you think of this skeleton programme? (After defining speakers, we can arrange the content/format)
@ LOCATION?? Is Framer Framed an option? I don’t know the space
Potential speakers to reach out to. We need a (also financially) healthy mix of EU and non-EU, and locals.
*
Claudia Aradau<https://www.kcl.ac.uk/people/professor-claudia-aradau-1> (UK, IR) OR Louise Amore<https://www.durham.ac.uk/staff/louise-amoore/> (UK, pol geography) - probably not available due to health reasons
*
Fernando Filgueiras (Brazil) - on advisory board; met recently in Brasilia, available to come (at least when we spoke in December), author of this<https://www.cambridge.org/core/elements/abs/artificial-intelligence-and-public-policy/B71FDB14B9DC572152DA23E7CCCC0AF7> and this<https://books.google.nl/books?hl=en&lr=&id=AHfkEAAAQBAJ&oi=fnd&pg=PP1&dq=Fernando+filgueira+algorithms+as+institutions&ots=l1H5-mQZ1L&sig=7YiHqCf3Ex2GebLxr8Uydd0HA7A#v=onepage&q=Fernando%20filgueira%20algorithms%20as%20institutions&f=false> and much more. Not sure how he is as a speaker, but a generous person and working with government now on health tech
*
Evelyn Ruppert<https://www.gold.ac.uk/global-change/people/emeritus-staff/> (UK, sociology) - on our advisory board; great for many reasons and fun speaker
*
Rocco Bellanova OR Mathias Leese (Zurich one or the other 😉) (we could also invite one of them for day 1, the other for day 2)
*
Martin Tironi<https://diseno.uc.cl/persona/tironi-martin/> <https://diseno.uc.cl/persona/tironi-martin/> for the artist programme but also substantive contribution if needed
*
Mariana Valente (two concerns: she does Internet governance more that governance by; would be a second Brazilian if Fernando joins us, too)
Locals, or almost locals:
*
Seda Gurses<https://www.tudelft.nl/staff/f.s.gurses/> (Delft, security engineering) - awesome, and on our advisory board. Very political
*
Marjolein Lanzig<https://www.uva.nl/profiel/l/a/m.lanzing/m.lanzing.html> (UvA, philosophy) - a great troublemaker, vocal, lively, fun
*
Niels ten Oever<https://www.uva.nl/en/profile/o/e/n.tenoever/n.tenoever.html> (UvA, critical infrastructure studies) - also a vocal troublemaker, much on governance OF tech and standards, good for a more technically-inclined input; nice also for continuity with DATACTIVE and IN-SIGHT projects (my past endeavour)
*
Marieke De Goede<https://www.uva.nl/en/profile/g/o/m.degoede/m.degoede.html> (UvA, pol sci) - might be too busy since still dean by then
*
Bidisha Chaudhuri (UvA, media studies) - India perspective (@Sruthi Vanguri<mailto:s.vanguri at uva.nl> on topic or not?)
Sadly,
*
Linnet Taylor is not available due to health reasons.
For DAY 1
* Mansi Kedia for workshop/panel - Governance/Policy/Global South/DPI (@Sruthi Vanguri<mailto:s.vanguri at uva.nl> please provide more info)
*
Cecilia Passanti (STS, Paris) - just finished PhD on biometrics in Africa. She applied for a DATAGOV postdoc, but didn’t make the cut; might be interesting to invite for the workshop
*
Maybe Mariana Valente or Fernando?
*
For the EU: Rocco or Mathias
*
+ maybe Niels and …?
Please answer to this thread, we need to make some urgent decisions.
Thanks a million, stefi
