A free event for the community from the City of Toronto. There has been very little public discussion on political responsibility and what government needs to do in order best ensure rights are protected.
Join Councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam for an in-depth panel discussion on the smart cities challenge before us: how do we ensure equity and the public good are built into this venture and what kinds of policies does the City of Toronto need to develop in order to best protect the rights and well-being of all residents.
Panellists:
Bianca Wylie, head, Open Data Institute Toronto and senior fellow, Centre International Governance Innovation (CIGI)
Ali Miri, research director of the Privacy and Big Data Institute, Ryerson University
Nasma Ahmed, Ford-Mozilla Open Web Fellow
Anil Patel, co-founder & digital strategist at Grantbook
Moderated by Councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam
