The workshops are designed to inspire insightful discussions among the participants, and it will do so by engaging top-notch experts in each of the fields and facilitating discussion between CC4DR and Metropolis’ members that take part in it. 

Each workshop (1h) will have 10 participants, using the “first come, first served” criteria among members of Metropolis and the Cities Coalition for Digital Rights. To join, please fill in this form.
