Dear Authors,
We hope this message finds you well. We are writing to inform you of a delay in the review process for the CPDP LatAm 2024 call for papers. Unfortunately, considering the 2 week extension of the CfP and some technical problems we faced with the submission process, we will need to extend the timeline by at least one month.
We understand that this may affect your plans, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Rest assured, we are working diligently to ensure that the review process is completed as soon as possible and that the new schedule will be communicated to you in due time.
Thank you for your understanding and patience. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Best regards,
CPDP LatAm 2024 team
CPDP LatAm 2024 will be hosted by the Center for Technology and Society at FGV Law School, in Rio de Janeiro, on 17 and 18 July 2024. CPDP LatAm is the Latin American edition of the Computers, Privacy and Data Protection (CPDP) Conference – an internationally distinguished event that has been taking place for over 15 years in Brussels, Belgium.
Considering the Brazilian Presidency of the G20 during 2024, the fourth edition of CPDP LatAm will be dedicated to the core transversal topic of “Data Governance: From Latin America to the G20”, and will be followed by a one-day event on “Digital Sovereignty in the G20”, on 19 July 2024.
CPDP LatAm 2024 will be an official side event of the T20, the group of think tanks of the G20.
The 2024 CPDP LatAm combines the three core tracks: the Latin American edition of the Computers, Privacy and Data Protection (CPDP), the MyData LatAm track, and the Privacy Law Scholars Conference LatAm (PLSC LatAm).
The CPDP LatAm Call for Papers 2024 will focus on the following general theme “Data Governance: From Latin America to the G20”. Contributions from all disciplines related to the conference theme are welcome, and interdisciplinary papers are highly encouraged.
Submissions are welcomed in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. This call for papers welcomes authors willing to produce complete articles to be published in the official publications of CPDP LatAm. Their articles must be original and exclusively submitted to this process – thus, without having been submitted to any other publications in advance. Non-accepted articles are free to be submitted to other publications. If you wish to have your paper considered for publication, you must follow the author guidelines of the relevant publication outlet (see below, “Review Process and Publication”).
The CPDP LatAm Call for Papers 2024 prioritises articles related to:
Interdisciplinary analyses are highly encouraged. If you have any doubts about the compatibility of a prospective submission with the theme of this call, please contact us.
Authors of the selected paper proposals will be invited to present their working papers for closed peer-feedback feedback during the Latin American meeting of the Privacy Law Scholars Conference (PLSC). PLSC LatAm will take place in October 2024. More details are forthcoming.
After the peer feedback, submissions in English that pass the peer-review process successfully will be published at the CPDP LatAm special issue of the Oxford University Press International Data Privacy Law journal, edited by Prof Luca Belli and Prof Nicolo Zingales. Submissions in Portuguese and Spanish that successfully complete the peer review process will be published in a CPDP LatAm special issue of Revista Brasileira de Direitos Fundamentais e Justiça [Brazilian Journal of Fundamental Rights and Justice] (Qualis A1), edited by Prof Laura Schertel Mendes, Prof Ingo Sarlet and Prof Ivar Hartmann.
Articles selected for inclusion in the CPDP LatAm special issues will receive a total award of 2500 Brazilian Reais per article. Authors of article proposals selected to enter the peer review process – independent of their number – will receive a free pass for CPDP LatAm 2024. Authors may choose to refuse to receive an award and devolve it to a charity.
The CPDP LatAm Scientific Committee will also assign the “Danilo Doneda Award” for the best interdisciplinary paper, consisting of a 2500 Brazilian Reais prize and a 1250 Brazilian Reais prize to each runner-up.
