[jkuleszaicann at gmail.com]

Dear All,

 

On behalf of the Scientific Committee of the European Union's Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) and the Łódź Cyber Hub research center at the University of Łódź (Poland), I would like to invite you to participate in a special interdisciplinary workshop on human rights methodologies and the effective mitigation of challenges to the rule of law in Europe. As we will be talking about the DSA, intermediary liability, platforms, digital sovereignty, and the impact AI has on the rule of law I felt some of you might be interested to join us in Lodz or online, and am sharing the invitation. Thank you for considering. 

On 1st June 2023, at the  <https://www.wpia.uni.lodz.pl/> Faculty of Law and Administration of the University of Lodz, Poland we will host an interdisciplinary open event on human rights methodologies and their impact on the rule of law. Together with the members of the FRA Scientific Committee, we want to initiate in Łódź an open discussion about contemporary challenges to the rule of law in Europe and ways to tackle them effectively. During the four round table sessions, we hope to engage and encourage a free exchange of views between academics, judges, journalists, representatives of civil society, human rights practitioners, and all those looking for means effectively to mitigate the current challenges to the rule of law in Europe. The event is a continuation of the dialogue on human rights methodologies  <https://fra.europa.eu/en/event/2022/measuring-human-rights-european-union> started last year and a reflection of the work in this area carried out by the current Scientific Committee during its five-year term of office which is about to come to an end. 

More information about the event and confirmed participants is available below:
