[bestbits] Cyber policy training programme - Cybersecurity Q&A Thursday 11 August at 13:00UTC

[Daniela Schnidrig]

Dear all,

(Apologies for cross-posting)


We're delighted to unveil the cybersecurity module of our online training
series “How to engage in cyber policy: tools for human rights defenders”. The
series aims to help human rights defenders develop the tools, skills and
knowledge they need to engage effectively in cyber policy debates.

In this module, two videos cover the issues of cybersecurity definitions
and cyber threats. You can watch them on the online training YouTube channel
<https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCow9ZGJMNsZtAkz4ZvTtcJA>.


There will be a Q&A session complementing this module this Thursday 11
August, 13:00 UTC, which will allow you to pose questions to experts in the
field, so please mark your calendars!


The discussants for this session will be:


   - Nicolas Castellon, Cyber Security Specialist at CGI Group, Innovation
   Fellow at Peace Informatics Lab of Leiden University.
   - Matthew Shears, Internet policy expert, Co-chair Freedom Online
   Coalition's Working Group 1
   - Tatiana Tropina, Max Planck Institute for Foreign and International
   Criminal Law.
