This report describes the motivation, purpose, and scope of Dagstuhl Seminar 25312 "Building Privacy-Preserving Technologies of Societal Impact" as well as documents its program and outcomes. This inter-disciplinary seminar brought together computer science researchers and practitioners working on building privacy-enhancing technologies - most notably secure computation applications - and researchers in expertise in other relevant disciplines including law, medicine, and social studies. Besides the applied nature of the seminar that capitalized on the participants' desire to facilitate adoption of privacy-enhancing techniques in real world applications, a unique aspect of this seminar was the shared passion of the participants to use their expertise to build tools for protecting vulnerable populations and for other public good purposes.
