The rapid expansion of information technology has called for the establishment of robust personal data protection, a key human right safeguarded by both the Council of Europe’s Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data and its amending protocol (Convention 108+) and the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Speakers representing key stakeholders in the sector will discuss data protection and how it applies to the blood transfusion sector; outline the responsibilities and challenges faced by blood establishments and share strategies in managing the various types of data they process. The ensuing needs and emerging issues in the blood sector will also be explored.
Duration: 2 hours, 40 minutes.
