Data protection and (qualitative) social research in social media

Information from the organisers

The workshop is aimed at researchers working in digital communication environments. It starts with an introduction to data protection law, which presents the basic concepts of the General Data Protection Regulation and corresponding national regulations in particular, and teaches skills for creating a data protection concept. The second part focuses on specific challenges that the participants are confronted with. Finally, a discussion round will provide space for open questions and an exchange of experiences.

Participants are welcome to submit topics and challenges of their own to the speaker in advance.
