A wide range of proposals have be en advanced to mitigate these harms\, including better enforcement of exis ting laws\, new laws\, new technical standards\, and supranational governa nce regimes. This talk will briefly review existing governance frameworks around the manufacture and operation of other technologies and engineering fields that might offer lessons for the policy task of governing the deve lopment and operation of algorithmic decision-making systems. It will also present some possible strategies through which increased professionalisat ion of software engineering and administration could contribute to this ta sk. The talk will present very preliminary research and ample time will be reserved for discussion. The insights and suggestions of seminar particip ants will be greatly welcomed.\nSpeakers:\nSix Silberman (University of Ox ford) LOCATION:Please register to receive venue details TZID:Europe/London URL:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/f114a417-8068-4820-b3dc-3ab24b84fc57/ BEGIN:VALARM ACTION:display DESCRIPTION:Talk:Mitigating algorithmic harms: can professionalisation of software engineering and administration help? - Six Silberman (University of Oxford) TRIGGER:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:The Interdependence and Indivisibility of the UNCRC: Implementing and Understanding the Right to Play and the Convention - Dr Naomi Lott (Un iversity of Oxford)\, Jonathon Sargeant (Australia Catholic University)\, Michael Follet (OPAL)\, Neil Coleman (OPAL)\, Futhi Mbongwe (Play Africa)\ , Dr Sonali Nag (University of Oxford)\, Hannah Simmons (University of Oxf ord)\, Tim Gill (Independent Scholar)\, Six Silberman (University of Oxfor d)\, Ton Liefaard (University of Leiden)\, Simone van der Hof (University of Leiden)\, Faith Gordon (Australian National University)\, John Potter ( UCL)\, Dr Imogen Goold (University of Oxford)\, Adrian Voce OBE (Starlight Children's Foundation)\, Sandy Cabrita Gulyurtlu (Starlight Children's Fo undation)\, Kelsey Graber (University of Cambridge)\, Seamus Byrne (Leeds Beckett)\, Lara Ibrahim (University of Oxford)\, Fiona MacDonald (Open Uni versity)\, Tristan Cummings (University of Cambridge)\, Daniel Ogunniyi (U niversity of Hull)\, Aoife Daly (University College Cork)\, Ed Kirton-Darl ing (University of Bristol)\, Imogen Clark (Make Space for Girls)\, Susann ah Walker (Make Space for Girls)\, Alice Ferguson (Playing Out)\, Jonathan Herring (University of Oxford)\, Antonia Layard (University of Oxford)\, Philip Jaffe (UN Committee on the Rights of the Child)\, Helen Stalford (U niversity of Liverpool)\, Shreya Atrey (Associate Professor of Internation al Human Rights Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Oxford)\, Claire Rais sian (NUI Galway)\, Sally Atkinson-Sheppard (University of Westminster)\, Govind Subedi (Tribhuvan University and Child Workers in Nepal)\, Vinaya K umar Jha (Tribhuvan University)\, Louise Forde (Brunel University London) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230614T130000 DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20230616T133000 UID:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/9049dada-11e3-43ef-bd69-e4d6b734f0b2/ DESCRIPTION:The child’s right to play has historically been overlooked i n favour of other children’s rights. Yet\, children’s rights are inter related and interdependent. This symposium looks to investigate the relati onship between the right to play and the Convention on the Rights of the C hild as a whole. It will explore how implementation of the right to play a ssists in the implementation of other convention rights\, and vice versa. This symposium is the first of its kind\, applying the right to play to th e broader children’s rights framework and reflecting on the impact this may have for advocacy\, implementation and realisation of the right to pla y. The symposium includes contributions from academics\, non-governmental organisations\, advocates\, and policy experts from across the globe\, inc luding the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child. Contributions will pro vide recommendations for policy and practice\, as well as critical academi c debate. The event will foster relationships for future collaboration and impact.\nSpeakers:\nDr Naomi Lott (University of Oxford)\, Jonathon Sarge ant (Australia Catholic University)\, Michael Follet (OPAL)\, Neil Coleman (OPAL)\, Futhi Mbongwe (Play Africa)\, Dr Sonali Nag (University of Oxfor d)\, Hannah Simmons (University of Oxford)\, Tim Gill (Independent Scholar )\, Six Silberman (University of Oxford)\, Ton Liefaard (University of Lei den)\, Simone van der Hof (University of Leiden)\, Faith Gordon (Australia n National University)\, John Potter (UCL)\, Dr Imogen Goold (University o f Oxford)\, Adrian Voce OBE (Starlight Children's Foundation)\, Sandy Cabr ita Gulyurtlu (Starlight Children's Foundation)\, Kelsey Graber (Universit y of Cambridge)\, Seamus Byrne (Leeds Beckett)\, Lara Ibrahim (University of Oxford)\, Fiona MacDonald (Open University)\, Tristan Cummings (Univers ity of Cambridge)\, Daniel Ogunniyi (University of Hull)\, Aoife Daly (Uni versity College Cork)\, Ed Kirton-Darling (University of Bristol)\, Imogen Clark (Make Space for Girls)\, Susannah Walker (Make Space for Girls)\, A lice Ferguson (Playing Out)\, Jonathan Herring (University of Oxford)\, An tonia Layard (University of Oxford)\, Philip Jaffe (UN Committee on the Ri ghts of the Child)\, Helen Stalford (University of Liverpool)\, Shreya Atr ey (Associate Professor of International Human Rights Law\, Faculty of Law \, University of Oxford)\, Claire Raissian (NUI Galway)\, Sally Atkinson-S heppard (University of Westminster)\, Govind Subedi (Tribhuvan University and Child Workers in Nepal)\, Vinaya Kumar Jha (Tribhuvan University)\, Lo uise Forde (Brunel University London) LOCATION:Bonavero Institute of Human Rights (Sir Joseph Hotung Auditorium) \, Mansfield Road OX1 3TF TZID:Europe/London URL:https://talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/9049dada-11e3-43ef-bd69-e4d6b734f0b2/ BEGIN:VALARM ACTION:display DESCRIPTION:Talk:The Interdependence and Indivisibility of the UNCRC: Impl ementing and Understanding the Right to Play and the Convention - Dr Naomi Lott (University of Oxford)\, Jonathon Sargeant (Australia Catholic Unive rsity)\, Michael Follet (OPAL)\, Neil Coleman (OPAL)\, Futhi Mbongwe (Play Africa)\, Dr Sonali Nag (University of Oxford)\, Hannah Simmons (Universi ty of Oxford)\, Tim Gill (Independent Scholar)\, Six Silberman (University of Oxford)\, Ton Liefaard (University of Leiden)\, Simone van der Hof (Un iversity of Leiden)\, Faith Gordon (Australian National University)\, John Potter (UCL)\, Dr Imogen Goold (University of Oxford)\, Adrian Voce OBE ( Starlight Children's Foundation)\, Sandy Cabrita Gulyurtlu (Starlight Chil dren's Foundation)\, Kelsey Graber (University of Cambridge)\, Seamus Byrn e (Leeds Beckett)\, Lara Ibrahim (University of Oxford)\, Fiona MacDonald (Open University)\, Tristan Cummings (University of Cambridge)\, Daniel Og unniyi (University of Hull)\, Aoife Daly (University College Cork)\, Ed Ki rton-Darling (University of Bristol)\, Imogen Clark (Make Space for Girls) \, Susannah Walker (Make Space for Girls)\, Alice Ferguson (Playing Out)\, Jonathan Herring (University of Oxford)\, Antonia Layard (University of O xford)\, Philip Jaffe (UN Committee on the Rights of the Child)\, Helen St alford (University of Liverpool)\, Shreya Atrey (Associate Professor of In ternational Human Rights Law\, Faculty of Law\, University of Oxford)\, Cl aire Raissian (NUI Galway)\, Sally Atkinson-Sheppard (University of Westmi nster)\, Govind Subedi (Tribhuvan University and Child Workers in Nepal)\, Vinaya Kumar Jha (Tribhuvan University)\, Louise Forde (Brunel University London) TRIGGER:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
