Fwd: Call for participation: Workshop "Interdisciplinary collaboration in IG Research" - 4 Dec. Guadalajara (GIGANET/IPO, UPenn)

by Julia Pohle

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [GIGANET-MEMBERS] Call for participation: Workshop "Interdisciplinary collaboration in IG Research" - 4 Dec. Guadalajara (GIGANET/IPO, UPenn) Datum: Wed, 31 Aug 2016 12:21:34 -0300 Von: Aguerre, Carolina Ines <aguerre(a)UDESA.EDU.AR> Antwort an: Discussion list for GigaNet Members <GIGANET-MEMBERS(a)LISTSERV.SYR.EDU> An: GIGANET-MEMBERS(a)LISTSERV.SYR.EDU Dear Colleagues, I'm pleased to announce a call for a workshop to be organized on day -1 (4 December), i.e. the day before GIGANET's 11th Annual Symposium at IGF11 in Guadalajara. This is a joint initiative between GIGANET and the Internet Policy Observatory at the University of Pennsylvania. As you may be aware, the weekend before the IGF is increasingly used by the different communities that come to the IGF to have their own discussions and GIGANET's SC believes this is an excellent opportunity to engage in longer and specific debates about particular issues, in this occasion about research methods on IG and collaboration across disciplines. Please see below for more details about the workshop. We will be circulating the full agenda in the coming weeks. Please save the date and RSVP (details below). --- *Challenges and Opportunities: A Condensed Workshop on Interdisciplinary Collaboration in Internet Governance Research* Organized by GIGANET & the Internet Policy Observatory at the University of Pennsylvania 4 December, Guadalajara 2:00 pm -6:00 pm Hotel NH Collection Salon San Francisco Internet governance research has traditionally been at the interdisciplinary cross-roads of many traditions. In the last years, this trend is becoming more prevalent as the challenges to address and theorize Internet governance issues increasingly rely on a greater understanding of technical configurations and their implications. The methods and approaches of computer scientists for data collection and analysis is one such trend. To help bridge the gap across disciplines and open opportunities for interdisciplinary research, the event will bring together computer scientists and social, political and/or legal scholars who have been conducting research on issues such as censorship, net neutrality, privacy and surveillance to discuss methodological issues as well best practices for collaboration between scholars from a variety of disciplines. The second half of the program will feature an open roundtable to discuss the role of academics (and GIGANET) in the wider internet governance and policymaking context. Discussions will focus on how to foster research that is relevant both in academic circles as well as for policy and advocacy communities, how to build research collaborations with advocacy organizations that might be conducting research or have access to significant datasets, and how to bring more researchers and academics, particularly emerging talent, into internet governance conversations and spaces. For the full agenda and to RSVP, please email lsh(a)asc.upenn.edu <mailto:lsh@asc.upenn.edu> The event is free of charge, but requires advanced registration. --- If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to contact me.
