Centre for FOI Practitioners' Conference (online)

Registration is open for the annual Freedom of Information (FOI) Practitioners’ Conference, hosted by the University of Dundee’s Centre for FOI in collaboration with the Scottish Information Commissioner.

The conference is specifically designed to provide anyone working in FOI for a Scottish public authority with practical advice and opportunities for discussion as well as the latest updates and developments in the field.

This year’s event is taking place online over two half days (mornings), with the theme of “Resilience: FOI & EIR During and After the Pandemic”.
