Call for Nominations: 13th Annual Privacy Papers for Policymakers

The Future of Privacy Forum (FPF) invites privacy scholars and authors with an interest in privacy issues to submit finished papers to be considered for FPF’s 13th annual Privacy Papers for Policymakers (PPPM) Award. This award provides researchers with the opportunity to inject ideas into the current policy discussion, bringing relevant privacy research to the attention of the US Congress, federal regulators, and international data protection agencies.

The award will be given to authors who have completed or published top privacy research and analytical work in the last year that is relevant to policymakers. The work should propose achievable short-term solutions or new means of analysis that could lead to real­ world policy solutions.

FPF is pleased to also offer a student paper award for students of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs. Student submissions must follow the same guidelines as the general PPPM award.

We encourage you to share this opportunity with your peers and colleagues. Learn more about the Privacy Papers for Policymakers program and view previous year’s highlights and winning papers on our website.

FPF will invite winning authors to present their work at an annual event with top policymakers and privacy leaders in spring 2023 (date TBD). FPF will also publish a printed digest of the summaries of the winning papers for distribution to policymakers in the United States and abroad.

Learn more and submit your finished paper by October 21st, 2022. Please note that the deadline for student submissions is November 4th, 2022.
