On 10 December 2025, the Polish Personal Data Protection Office (UODO) and the Council of Europe jointly held an international conference in Warsaw, Poland, on 'The Role of the Council of Europe’s Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence in the Protection of Privacy and Personal Data'.
This event brought together representatives from the Polish public administration and judiciary, as well as international organisations from the technology sector, to discuss the challenges associated with data processing in AI systems and access to justice, across three thematic sessions.
The final session on the role of artificial intelligence in the judicial system was organised by the European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice (CEPEJ) with the participation of its experts and Jan Spoenle (Germany), Aitor Cubo (Spain), Mireille Hildebrandt (Belgium), Aneta Wiewiórowska-Domagalska (Poland) and Krzysztof Król (Poland). The session was moderated by Marek Świerczyński (Poland), member of the CEPEJ's Advisory Board on Artificial Intelligence (AIAB).
The aim of the conference was to compare the content of national regulations and international instruments of the Council of Europe and to highlight the importance of clear governance to protect privacy and ensure human control. This is particularly important given the high-risk nature of the use of AI systems in the judicial sector.
