A first look at the complex legal, ethical and societal questions regarding the new European Health Data Space Regulation.
The European Health Data Space Regulation (EHDSR) promises nothing less than the first step towards a European Health Union. But behind its ambitious vision lies a complex web of legal, ethical and societal questions, repeatedly debated during the legislative process, finally translated into a Regulation.
This mini symposium invites you to explore:
- The metadata catalogue: key to a borderless European Health Union, or a bureaucratic maze?
- How to deal with GDPR’s lawfulness principle: how can consent, public interest or legitimate interest carry the load?
- The implications of a sector-specific approach to data subjects’ rights: is the EHDSR going above and beyond or was data subject empowerment sacrificed in the final sprint?
Join us for a thought-provoking afternoon of critical reflections, bold questions, and dynamic debate.
