The discussion forum here will provide you with access to an internal space to gather with the CSI-COP community of citizen scientists. Your learning from CSI-COP’s informal education course (MOOC) can be discussed in this forum. A thread has been created for each of the five steps in the course about ‘Your rights to privacy online’. You can post your views and learn other citizen scientists’ answers to the activities in each step. Access will require log-in. However, no personal information will be requested for log-in. This is in accordance with CSI-COP’s philosophy of preserving privacy and no-tracking.

Currently I am an Associate of the Institute for Science and Society, reflecting my interest in the interface between social science approaches and the development and potential use of technology. Among my other areas of interest are public policy in relation to overcoming gender, 'race' and disability discrimination, privacy and surveillance, ethics, and the politics of risk and biorisk.
