CPDP.ai 2025 - Risking Fundamental Rights The Myriad Ways of Risk in EU Law and Policy

Описание: Risking Fundamental Rights? The Myriad Ways of Risk in EU Law and Policy

Risk has proliferated since the GDPR and is now also found in the DSA and AI Act. While the DSA introduces the notion of systemic risks, the AI Act covers anything from 'self-replicating' AI systems to discrimination of individuals, groups and societies. The panel will touch these more abstract issues and consider the cases of migration and law enforcement to illustrate the implications of these policies, for instance, how framing migration as a "risk" can affect human rights. Broadening the scope, we discuss the role of standardisation as well as how policy and political narratives of risk-based approaches can be code for deregulatory agendas. Internal risk classifications can obscure broader questions of risk to a fundamental rights-based EU legal and political order in a changing geo-political landscape.

With this inflation of risk, our panel will engage the following questions:

Questions to be answered:
How is risk regulated and what role does standardization play?
How does risk affect securitisation trends in migration policies, the development and deployment of tech used in border and does this overshadow the systemic risks faced by vulnerable populations?
How do risk assessment and profiling in predictive policing contexts affect individuals?
What does a shift towards 'risk' based language mean for fundamental rights in EU data law and what risks are posed by current geo-political circumstances?

Organised by Fraunhofer ISI with Felix Bieker (moderator), Katherine Nolan, Irmak Erdoğan Peter, Aljosa Ajanovic Andelic, Isabel Barberá
