MyData Town Hall – EU Roadmap – report back from EC roundtable

This Town Hall will review our draft Roadmap for the European Commission, intended to inform and support the Commission’s work to define the European Data Union Strategy, which will guide EC policymaking and implementation in the years to come.

We will begin the Town Hall by discussing the draft Roadmap we presented to the EC in our closed roundtable earlier this month. Our key assertion there was that a human-centric approach of empowering the individual user, consumer and citizen with control over data about them is the best way to ensure that measures for European digital sovereignty and competitiveness are aligned with European values. We suggested 11 concrete recommendations to the Commission based on this premise, and received good feedback on how to refine them to be more actionable.

We will share our presentation of the Roadmap along with the feedback we received. We’ll then discuss with you how we should finalise the Roadmap as a public document in March. Your input as MyData members is invaluable to this process. If you’re unable to attend the Town Hall, there will also be opportunities to contribute asynchronously.

For any questions or to share your input, please contact Executive Director Christopher Wilson at christopher(at)mydata.org.
