Based on her expertise in technology and international human rights frameworks as well as her ground-breaking journalism for The Guardian, Carly’s seminar talk is entitled 'Challenging State Power: Surveillance, Privacy and Human Rights'. The talk aims to give a better understanding of the challenges and limitations of digital communication and privacy in an era of increasingly intrusive surveillance.
