Description: In September 2022, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law the California Age Appropriate Design Code Act (CAADCA). Beginning July 1, 2024, the act will require businesses that provide online services or features “likely to be accessed by children” to take a number of steps, including conducting a data protection impact assessment. Learn how this law overlaps with existing children’s privacy law requirements and what steps your company can take to establish compliance before it goes into effect. This will be particularly relevant for gaming clients and companies with apps handling children’s data.

Presenters: Kimberly Norwood, Henry H. Oberschelp Professor of Law at Washington University in St. Louis

Description: This session will focus on how to interrupt biases that can have harmful or unintended disparate impacts in everyday life and in the workplace. Elimination of Bias, while a catchy and often used title, is not possible.  No science confirms that elimination is even possible. In fact, the science says complete elimination is not possible. So, do we throw our hands up in the air? No! We can still adopt habits and strategies to interrupt and intercept biases, particularly when they are on the path to harmful outcomes. Topics will cover interruption tools starting with self, for individuals, and then a pivot to institutional changes within the workplace environment that can proactively minimize biased outcomes.
