Über die Veranstaltung

DigiSem is a bi-annual workshop for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, organised by Bavarian Research Institute for Digital Transformation (bidt), Center for Advanced Internet Studies (CAIS), Hans-Bredow-Institut (HBI) and Weizenbaum Institute (WI).

The second edition of DigiSem focuses on a pressing subject that has also been selected as topic of the Science Year 2024: Freedom. DigiSem takes into focus what digital freedom means and what impact this may have on our lives with respect to more or less autonomy, wellbeing and possibilities to participate in public life.

DigiSem is a perfect place to meet other young researchers related to your topics and provides a place to discuss results, ideas and problems relating to the special theme in a smaller group. The workshop will include a keynote by an expert on the field of ethics in digitalisation. Further, there will be focus sessions on specific aspects of the workshop’s overarching theme.

A Podcast-Team will accompany the event.
