Excluded by Design: Tech Regulation’s Racial Bias

Tech Regulation’s Racial Bias

Lawmakers are shaping and implementing the EU's digital policy with increasing emphasis on safeguarding the rights of EU residents. However, the safety and rights of minorities and those on the move like migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers are compromised. This oversight has a devastating impact on digital rights, human rights, and non-discrimination. In this meet-up, we especially invite voices from minority and migrant communities to join our exploration of questions such as: what role do technologies like AI play in the regulation of migration? And how can we better consider the needs of vulnerable communities when regulating technology?
