Digitalität und Verantwortung
Many people at group tables at a lecture
Fri, March 22, 2019 10 am – 5.45 pm CET, Conference

Where are the challenges, opportunities and risks of digitization for art and culture? What are the ethical challenges of digitization? How are the role and self-image of art and culture changing in the digital society? 

The second dialogue event of the »Digital Worlds« Forum will discuss the ethical and legal foundations on which a responsible digital cultural policy must be based. Participants from all disciplines will jointly address the fundamental questions of the digital future in the cultural sector.

Digital Debate
In order to enable everyone to contribute suggestions and questions, a digital debate will take place during the conference of the Ministry. The Internet audience is invited to participate in the event via video streaming and social media. An online editorial team will moderate the digital debate and reflect it back into the event room again and again. Thus, questions asked on Twitter under #digitaleweltenBW can be directly integrated into the discussion by the participants on stage.
