How is increasing technologisation and automation of our spheres of life to be assessed and justified? And what effects does the simultaneity of our analogue and digital lives have on our psychosocial condition? The experts introduce their topics in short presentations and then exchange ideas in a digital World Café. This event is in German only. Due to limited participant numbers, we would kindly request a binding and reliable registration to allow maximum usage of limited capacities. Registration is required. The registration link will be published closer to the event date. Background This event series consists of five interactive lectures and is funded by the Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU).
