  • Elections Everywhere All at Once

    When
    December 6, 2023 | 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm (PST)
    Where
    Virtual
    Hosted by
    Atlantic Council

    Join the DFRLab, Duco, and Anchor Change, on December 6th from 3:00-5:00 p.m. ET to discuss the landscape of international elections, how tech platforms are preparing for them, and what to expect over the next year.

    In 2024, 83 national elections will be held in 78 countries around the world, including India, Mexico, Senegal, Ukraine, and the United States. The world will likely not see the same volume of global elections until 2048. This “superbowl” of an election year presents unique challenges to the global community that works on everything from election administration to information integrity.

    Panelists will highlight risks regarding misinformation, privacy, algorithmic biases, and other emerging AI and regulatory trends, and share actionable insights to inform those developing global elections plans and strategies, and illuminate emerging global standards.

  • Child Online Safety: Assessing and Mitigating the Evolving Risks to Children Online

    When
    December 14, 2023 | 10:00 am – 11:00 am (PST)
    Where
    Virtual
    Hosted by
    TSPA

    Join us for this insightful conversation with Teleperformance on the risks to children online, and how they are quickly evolving given advancements in generative AI, new regulation related to age assurance, and new trends in children’s behavior online. This is leading to increasingly nuanced and complex decisions about how to create safe experiences for children in online spaces. In this session, we will explore, what are the best practices for age verification? How are the Online Safety Bill in the UK and other global regulation changing the way that platforms are required to assess and mitigate risks to children? How is generative AI changing the risk landscape for children online and how can companies be proactive about mitigating these risks? We will look to explore these questions to provide a comprehensive view of preparing for a new era of online safety, particularly to protect children online.
