Events held on University campuses have been a cornerstone of the Data Privacy Day celebration for the past two years. These events, often open to the general public, offer opportunities to bring together scholars, privacy professionals, businesspeople, government officials, and representatives from think tanks and nonprofits to explore a variety of compelling privacy issues. Past events have focused on national security, information security, and the transatlantic perspective on privacy, among others. Check the Higher Education page to learn about the events that will be taking place in 2010.

The educational outreach to teens and young adults has also been an integral feature of the international Data Privacy Day effort. Privacy professionals in the United States and Canada are encouraged to contact their local high schools and offer to speak to interested groups about good privacy practices in the context of social networking sites and other social media, cell phones and other online and mobile environments frequently used by teens. Corporations can help by encouraging their privacy and security teams to volunteer in local schools and spread the word about the importance of protecting personal information. All resources for teens and young adults available on this webpage are examples of materials that could be used to generate or guide a great privacy discussion. Because fewer high school events dedicated to teen education are open to the public, we will also attempt to post general events that may be of interest to teens on the High School Events page.
