[Advocacy Advisors] April 23 Privacy Lab - How to Communicate to Non-Technical Audiences

[Chris Riley]

Hello friends - I think this is my first post to this list?

Wanted to invite you to an event that Mozilla policy+privacy is
organizing next week at our San Francisco offices, in case it's of
interest. We're organizing monthly privacy lab discussions at rotating
locations (security is also a common topic as you can tell from the
agenda). More information on signing up for updates is below, along with
contact information for Stacy Martin who is the primary organizer.

Thanks,
chris

Our April Privacy Lab will include an optional and free Cryptoparty,
hosted by Peninsula CryptoParty Volunteers
(https://wildbee.org/cryptoparty.html). Cryptoparty participants will
leave the event with new tools on their own devices that they'll have
learned how to use.   

At this meeting, our speaker will be *Melanie Ensign*.  Melanie's topic
is how security/crypto experts can communicate to non-technical
audiences, including how she sees consumer demand for privacy and
security evolving and how privacy and security products need to be sold
and communicated to the public.  Her presentation will be 15 minutes
followed by 15 minutes of Q&A. It will be preceded by 30 minutes of
socializing as people arrive.

Following the speaker and Q&A, *we will break into two groups*, those
who wish to attend the cryptoparty to acquire and learn about new tools
to use on their own devices and those who would like to continue with
the usual Privacy Lab schedule of networking and talking about general
privacy topics.

As always, the goal of Privacy Lab is to bring together and others
interested in privacy at for-profits, non-profits, and NGOs in an effort
to contribute to the state of the ecosystem for privacy. By attending,
you'll be able to hear what other people and organizations are working
on, share what you're working on, and learn how to get involved.

We hope to see you attend and become part of the growing community of
privacy advocates in San Francisco. If you can't attend in person, this
session will be recorded on https://air.mozilla.org.
