Research project
Project Title: Public-private data sharing from “dataveillance” to “data relevance”
Objectives: Many aspects need to be addressed when it comes to public-private data sharing, such as what type of data is going to be shared under what legal conditions. While some EU Acts are trying to boost the redistribution of data through data sharing, they still lack data sharing principles and rules when it comes to personal data and its impacts. Thus, this research aims to understand the implications of public-private data sharing, while reinforcing the importance of protecting data subjects’ rights at the same time that it supports the redistribution of data that is held in data silos. Methods include a literature review to better understand the background and make analyses.
