3. Methodology: Roundtable setting is used for exploring inputs from both online and onsite contributors. The session will be started with short presentation from each subject matter experts (SMEs), then the floor will be made available for walk-in or remote participants. Discussion highlights will be compiled and put together into more accessible products, such as infographics and short reports which available online, as well as policy recommendation.
4. Discussion Flow:

Expected Outcomes: Reports will be published after the workshop, in the from of conventional text-based scripts and infographics. The outputs will be used as one of important tools of policy recommendation and materials for public education in order to raise awareness regarding the issue.
Interaction and participation during the workshop are encouraged by allocating 30 minutes for open QnA session from onsite and online contributors.
Relevance to Theme: Internet ethics and regulations related to personal data protection are necessary in this digital era, so as to balance out among economic interests, law enforcement, and human rights. On the one hand, personal data protection, freedom of the press, and freedom of the information for public use should go hand in hand. On the other hand, Internet users as data owners are expected to have enough understanding and consent awareness on their digital eights and personal data management.
Therefore, this workshop is relevant to the bigger theme of data governance as we are going to discuss three main subjects: 1) synchronisation among existing regulations at the national, regional, and international levels; 2) the enforcement of human rights; and 3) the development of digital economy ecosystem.
Relevance to Internet Governance: This workshop will be involving contributors from diverse backgrounds of the authorities, experts, civil society organisations, as well as private sectors to uphold multistakeholder approach. It is intended to extract wholesome, practical, and adaptable outputs.
We will create publication materials to promote the workshop and disseminate it to our networks and fellow organisers which come from three regions: Asia, North-America, and Europe.
Proposed Additional Tools: we plan to provide live streaming using mobile device and channeling to facebook and/or instagram
