Digital ethics: making decisions in COVID-19 times

COVID-19 has been a challenge to many of the existing digital governance structures, including data and privacy. The pace and demand for technologies and data has exacerbated the need for faster ways to make proportionate decisions that balance the wider public interest and privacy rights. This webinar explores the big digital ethics questions that COVID-19 has brought, how integrity is still possible in times of crisis and any signs of changes in the collective moral code. *While the presenters day jobs include the NHS and Scottish Government, the views expressed are their own and do not represent the organisation with which they are affiliated.
