APPLIED workshop
On October 23rd Jos Hoevenaars joined an international group of experts in a workshop organized by the researchers of the Assessing Collective Private Parties’ Litigation in the Economy of Data (APPLIED) project. It aims to explore the evolving landscape of data protection litigation within the EU, focusing on the effectiveness of collective private enforcement (CPE). The workshop’s goal was to connect the relevant debates in the field of collective redress and data protection law, as well as explore how they relate to issues of private enforcement in the emerging fields of platform and data law. It brought together academics working in various fields surrounding collective data protection litigation in the EU. Jos was asked to comment on the project design and preliminary findings as well as provide reflections based on his expertise around the funding of collective actions.

Carlota Ucín has developed a training site for disseminating her work on public interest litigation, human rights and argumentative theory. The purpose of this project is to be able to transfer this knowledge and help practitioners and judges to better legitimate their actions by supporting their claims and decisions from a human rights perspective.
Therefore, the site has two main sections: a blog and a training platform where courses online will be delivered. The first online activity was the presentation of her book (Juicio a la desigualdad. La defensa de los derechos sociales a través del proceso. Inequality on trial. The defence of social rights through the process, Marcial Pons, Madrid, 2021).
Although the site is for now only available in Spanish it may also be translated into English in the near future.
