Data Values Bootcamp

Your data matters

How is your data used? Do you know who has your data? How do you want you data to be used?

Data Values Bootcamp is a three-day virtual bootcamp grappling those questions. It is the gathering of all the young changemakers in the field of data, privacy, and responsible tech. At the end of the bootcamp, the participants will be equipped with relevant tools to start conversations about Data Values and change how your data is handled in your community.

About the Bootcamp

  • Target Audience: Young changemakers (16 - 30) around the world who are interested in responsible data

  • Aim: We want to equip young people with adequate tools and skills to create data protection rules & compact within their communities (i.e GDPR for their school)

  • Network: We want to create a network of young people who care about data privacy and foster this movement

  • Certificates: We will issue certificates to participants who attend all three days of the bootcamp.
