Program Director at GYLA

Tamar Oniani is a human rights lawyer based in Georgia, specializing in litigation before the European Court of Human Rights and in non-judicial advocacy at both national and international levels. She serves as Program Director at the Georgian Young Lawyers’ Association (GYLA), teaches at GIPA and Caucasus University, and is currently pursuing a Master’s in International Human Rights Law at the University of Oxford.

Her work focuses on the evolving intersection between technology and human rights — where privacy, freedom of expression, and state surveillance increasingly collide.

When every movement and message can be traced, can the right to privacy still be meaningfully protected? Join Tamar at DataFest Tbilisi on November 27–29 to explore Georgia’s case.
