Are you working on or are interested in issues around sustainable digitalization beyond your national borders? In that case we are the perfect match for you! In our international meetup we will hold a space for networking, hearing about your ideas, projects and experiences and share our experiences from the two-year European dialogue project "Digitalisation for Sustainability (D4S)".
With this session we want to provide a space for exchange, networking and learning for researchers of all disciplines and representatives from civil society organisations working on topics of sustainable digitalisation with a deliberate European/international focus. In the course of our two-year European dialogue project "Digitalisation for Sustainability", we have made the experience that there are some international projects and actors, but they often do not know about each other. We envision an informal setting, a circle of chairs, sofa corner, etc. that offers the opportunity to get into conversation with each other.
