Hackademie is a new initiative from Privacy Salon vzw. The initiative empowers Dutch-speaking young people in Brussels to learn more and speak up about digital rights, privacy, and data protection. Through buddy mentoring and EU work visits, they develop knowledge, confidence, and an active voice in the urban and European digital landscape, which they use to hack the CPDP conference.
Hackademie is looking for Buddies!
Are you a multilingual master's student with a passion for digital rights, AI and data protection? And would you like to share your knowledge and enthusiasm with 15- to 16-year-olds?
Hackademie is looking for motivated buddies who want to guide young people through the complex world of privacy, data protection and artificial intelligence. As a buddy, you will be part of a unique project that makes young people aware of the impact of technology on their lives.
