Public lecture by UN Privacy Rapporteur, Joe Cannataci


Listen Later

The human right to privacy raises global policy, legal and political challenges in the information age. Issues such as data retention, data breaches and the interaction between public security versus private autonomy, are all creating a diversity of public debates in Australia and around the world.
In 2015 the UN Human Rights Council responded to these challenges with the appointment of the first Rapporteur for Privacy; Professor Joseph (Joe) Cannataci. His appointment is a significant global milestone in the protection of privacy as a fundamental human right and his work has already attracted significant new interest, debate and awareness of privacy issues.
In this talk, as part of Privacy Awareness Week 2016, Professor Cannataci provides his views as a world leading authority in privacy and data protection rights.
