About the DPIA Research Repository

DPIA Research was established as part of a doctoral project at the UCD Sutherland School of Law to support academic transparency and public access to DPIA-related materials.

The project — “Data Protection Impact Assessments: The Intersection of Data Protection, Risk Assessments, and New Governance” — examined how DPIAs serve as a bridge between law, policy, and technology.

This repository continues that mission by collecting and sharing DPIA reports, guidance documents, and structured tools for privacy researchers, legal scholars, and professionals.
