Events
The Digital Freedom Fund facilitates networking, skill building and movement-strengthening initiatives in the form of training, workshops, speaker series and strategy sessions. Our approach is participatory and seeks to support individuals and organisations working to promote digital rights in Europe through strategic litigation. Events are held in both online and offline format.
Upcoming Events
We are excited to announce that our annual strategic litigation retreat shall take place on the 11th-14th September 2023. This retreat shall specifically focus on platform accountability and collective redress. Participants shall work on litigation and advocacy plans for a strategic case of their choice by means of group work, individual brainstorming and knowledge and skills sharing.
Speaker Series 2023 - Digital Rights are Charter Rights
DFF’s fourth Speaker Series explores concrete cases where the EU Charter of fundamental rights was utilised to protect digital rights at a national, cross-jurisdictional or EU level.
The first session explored how the EU Charter right to non-discrimination can be (and has been) used to fight back against discriminatory e-proctoring systems. You can watch the replay here.
We are organising a strategic workshop on platform workers, which we understand as individuals earning their livelihood selling their labour power via and/or to online platforms- directly or indirectly.
We aim to map the issues at the intersection of technology, online platforms, and social and racial justice, to identify potential partnership opportunities and to start strategising toward building transformative action- and movement- oriented coalitions, in order to support the expansion of an intersectional transfeminist and antiracist space working on these issues.
Inspired by the many examples of organising against police abuse across Europe, DFF is working to develop a toolkit that offers an intersectional understanding of the question at hand, that is as accessible as possible and propose simplified examples of strategising and organising against digital policing.
