The BIRD Platform (Biometric Innovation and Responsible Development of Identification Technologies) was launched in Brussels at the joint conference of the HIDE and RISE projects. Based on the idea that biometric technology is transforming many aspects of human life and that these changes imply a certain level of risk for societies as with many technological developments, the purpose of the BIRD Platform is to provide a common and permanent forum for all stakeholders at European and international levels to facilitate and structure the debate on the sensitive policy, legal and ethical issues around the development and use of biometrics. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract
The BIRD Platform (Biometric Innovation and Responsible Development of Identification Technologies) was launched in Brussels at the joint conference of the HIDE and RISE projects. Based on the idea that biometric technology is transforming many aspects of human life and that these changes imply a certain level of risk for societies as with many technological developments, the purpose of the BIRD Platform is to provide a common and permanent forum for all stakeholders at European and international levels to facilitate and structure the debate on the sensitive policy, legal and ethical issues around the development and use of biometrics. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
