On Wednesday, 16 February 2022, CTED will hold a virtual event to launch its Trends Report on “The State of International Cooperation for Lawful Access to Digital Evidence: Research Perspectives”.
The report, issued in January 2022, provides a snapshot of the regulatory reform landscape for evidence to digital access as of late 2021.
Its main objective is to identify some of the major trends that contribute to the current overall cross-border situation in this area.
During the launch event, participants will discuss ongoing reform efforts and related issues concerning lawful access to digital evidence and the cross-border sharing of electronic evidence.
Panellists will also address the need to ensure compliance with international human rights law and fundamental freedoms, particularly the right to privacy, as well as options for ensuring interoperability between the various initiatives and other ways forward to enhance access to digital evidence (including the expansion of capacity-building efforts aimed at addressing the various challenges identified in the report).
The launch event will be held from 9.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. EST / 3.00 p.m. to 5.00 p.m. CET.
Should you wish to attend the event, please complete by 12.00 noon EST on Tuesday, 15 February 2022.
All enquiries concerning the report and the launch event should be addressed to Ms. Jennifer Bramlette, CTED Legal Officer & ICT Coordinator (bramlette@un.org).
