SUMMARY:NGI SALON @ 4YFN
DESCRIPTION:The past\, present and future of (y)our internet\nTarget participants: Millennials (1980-2000)\nDo you remember the first time you went on the internet? The (open) chat rooms and the pixeled snake? Past\, present and future. By bringing (y)our internet memories and ideals together we will define what’s needed for a fair and sustainable digital future. \nWe start from the premise that Millennials don’t want to\, nor can return to a fully analogue world. We must\, therefore\, learn how to deal positively with the advantages of the world wide web\, and avoid its pitfalls. \nWhilst the internet and the digital revolution have\, doubtless\, provided us with immensely powerful tools\, they have also raised many ethical concerns. This is actually not surprising\, since the digital revolution is still in its early adopting years. Just as the car and car usage have gone through many years of modernization (creation of new traffic rules\, installation of airbags\, seat belts etc.)\, ideas about how we use and should use online digital devices are only starting to be framed. If we want a digital future that reflects the needs of society and the environment\, we need to think\, discuss and act NOW. \nMotivations\, hopes\, achievements: digging into solutions for major societal challenges\, this salon aims to rebuild a Millennial’s portrayal that focuses not on how the internet has gone wrong\, but the ways in which we believe it could be improved and contribute to a better society\, thriving in a rich natural ecosystem. We will be mapping challenges and possible solutions towards a vision for a sustainable society in a technology-pervasive future. \n  \n \n  \nContext\nThis activity is organized within the framework of the Next Generation Internet initiative launched by the European Commission. Results will be presented to the European Parliament.\nThe workshop is organized in collaboration with 4YFN. \n

SUMMARY:NGI Move Salon @ 4YFN SMART CITY VILLAGE
DESCRIPTION:NGI Move Salon: FRESH IDEAS ON PRIVACY\, TRUST AND DATALAKE MANAGEMENT | 4YFN LOUNGE @ 4YFN SMART CITY VILLAGE\nNovember the 15th from 12:30 to 13:45\nRoundtable with Rob van Kranenburg (NGI Move) moderating a selected group of invited participants to discuss digital priorities.   \n\nMODERATOR\nRob van Kranenburg (IoT Council\, NGI MOVE) \nSPEAKERS\n\nFrancesca Bria (CTO Barcelona)\nLuis Sanchez (Smart Santander)\nChris Massot (Partner at Claro)\nMarc Pous (thethings_io)\nAntonio Skarmeta (University of Murcia)\nMara Balestrini (IDEAS FOR CHANGE)\n\n\n\nThe main conclusions from the panelists were:\n\nOur vision of technology is still largely influenced by the Computer of the 21st Century paper\, it’s too concerned with the pushing the boundaries of technology without questioning its meaning and role\nEnhance education\, especially with a STEAM (STEM + Arts and creativity) approach\, so that people can learn to value their data and have more agency and awareness when sharing them with third-parties.\nSharing data is crucial to solve world problems as the ones identified by the Sustainable Development Goals\n\n\nThe most inspiring outcome from the panel was the focus on new ideas on privacy. \nThe general feeling is that the GDPR might be a starting-point\, but is looking at privacy in a too static way. In a fully connected environment of potential added value to citizens the new term ‘privacies’ was very well received. Privacies can be described as dynamic levels of accountability\, levels that can be set according to predefined rules and are in control of the end-user. Such concepts are more easily hard-codable and reflect the new given: privacy in a hybrid world is a process distributed over the environment (smart)\, a citizen (grown up in the digital)\, and the objects themselves (dynamic and learning environments themselves). \n\nNGI – Towards a future Internet that better responds to the expectations of the citizens!\nNGI Move\, @NGI4EU brings you Salons and Meetings all over Europe to promote\, exchange and debate the Next Generation Internet movement. \nWhat should the Next Generation Internet look like? | Join the NGI-Movement @NGI4EU
