     Dear all,   

 In case you are travelling to Brussels to attend CPDP, this week, I would like to invite you to our session on CyberBRICS: challenges and opportunities for data protection in the BRICS, tomorrow, Friday 1st February, at 16:00 CET. The session will kick-off our new CyberBRICS Project  (http://www.cyberbrics.info/ ) with a debate on the recent (r)evolutions regarding privacy and data protection in Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, featuring some of the  CyberBRICS team members.
