A main goal of the STPPA series is to gather reference material about “PEC tools”, which may facilitate future reflections on the characterization and development of recommendations/guidelines about advanced cryptography, namely for uses related to privacy and public auditability. Each event will include talks on various interconnected topics, aiming to convey basic technical background, incite curiosity, suggest research questions and discuss applications, with an emphasis on the role of cryptographic tools. Attendance in each event is open and free to the public, but requires registration.
