The Sheffield Centre of International and European Law (SCIEL) is hosting a panel discussion on 鈥楪ender, New Technologies, and the Law鈥� with the participation of Dr Ramona Vijeyarasa, Associate Professor and Director of the Juris Doctor Program in the Faculty of Law at the 小欧视频 of Technology Sydney, and Dr Maria Tzanou, Senior Lecturer in Law at the 小欧视频 of Sheffield. The panel will be chaired by Dr Anna Ventouratou, Lecturer in International Trade Law at the 小欧视频 of Sheffield. 

The event forms part of the programme of the British Branch of the International Law Association and is supported by the School of Law.

The discussion will focus on the law's role when it comes to addressing the gendered harms of new technologies. Dr Vijeyarasa will discuss her motivations for going beyond the boundaries of the law to offer new solutions to address gender inequality globally. Drawing from her experiences as the architect of the Gender Legislative Index, she will share her thoughts on why law, technology & data offer new potential to make the world more equal. On the flip side, drawing from her recent research on the gendered harms of artificial intelligence (AI), Dr Vijeyarasa will share emerging good practices on how to regulate and address the biases that underpin AI-driven technologies. She will also share her advice, from her first foray to her most recent experiences using technology for social justice as a 鈥榙ata outsider鈥�, as well as her insights on the role of women in data, data science & technology. Dr Maria Tzanou will share her insight from her project on 鈥楪endered Digital Surveillance and Harms鈥� that aims to reflect on the intersections of gender, digital technologies (some of which are addressed to women, such as FemTech) and regulation. Her project aims to understand the nature and scope of technology-facilitated gendered surveillance and harms and explore regulatory or legal responses grounded in feminist (data) justice.
