Honoring This Year's Prizeworthy Privacy Papers at our Site's 15th Annual Privacy Papers for Policy Makers Gala

The Future of Privacy Forum (FPF), a global non-profit organization headquartered in Washington, D.C., has announced the winners of its 15th annual Privacy Papers for Policymakers (PPPM) Awards. This prestigious event recognizes leading U.S. and international privacy scholarship that is relevant to policymakers.

FPF brings together academics, civil society, government officials, and industry to evaluate the societal, policy, and legal implications of data use, identify the risks, and develop appropriate protections. The PPPM Awards aim to foster a deeper understanding of privacy issues among policymakers and regulators, both in the U.S. and abroad.

The winning papers were selected based on the strength of their research and proposed policy solutions. The authors of the winning papers will have the opportunity to showcase their work at the PPPM ceremony on March 12, 2025, which will be held at FPF's offices in Washington, D.C. The event is free and registration is open to the public.
