<p><strong>The 2021 Education Award Theme is Cybersecurity</strong>.
The winner will be an outstanding European Informatics
educational initiative in the domain of cybersecurity,
understood in a broad sense, including related questions
such as user empowerment and control of personal data,
digital legal education (right to be forgotten, freedom of
speech, anonymity versus trust and security, crowdsourcing
versus legacy manufacturing, etc.). This concerns not only
students, but also teachers, industry and service providers,
citizens of all ages. Experiences in this area, as well as
new educational approaches with some evidence of their
effectiveness, are welcomed. </p>
