digilog@bw – Digitalization in Dialogue
Society in Digital Transformation
Digitalization is fundamentally changing societies. The aim of the »digilog@bw« project is to identify and analyse the influence of digitization on individuals and the resulting social changes in order to lay the foundations for developing digital change for the benefit of the human being.
In its projects, the interdisciplinary research network focuses on three central themes of digitization: autonomy, knowledge and participation. These core issues of digitization are the focal points of a socially and democratically compatible technology development.
»digilog@bw« will provide politics and society with a scientifically sound basis for making such decisions. This development task requires orientation towards critically reflected values, norms and framework conditions. The joint projects »Autonomy«, »Knowledge« and »Participation« will be carried out on an interdisciplinary basis and will be focused on the question of criteria for a promising and responsible development of the digital society. To this end, the research network brings together Baden-Württemberg expertise from university and non-university research in the humanities, social sciences, law, economics, media and communication sciences, ethics, computer science and interdisciplinary technology assessment at the highest scientific level.
The ZKM enables a lively exchange with the public through exhibitions, discussion events and lecture series. Thus »digilog@bw« will not only contribute to scientific research, but also to public discussion.

Shaping Digital Futures. digilog@bw. The Research Results
October 13, 2022
Digitization is transforming all areas of life. Analyzing the effects of this far-reaching transformation in order to create a basis for the informed planning of possible futures was the goal of the research project »digilog@bw - Digitalization in Dialog«, which was initiated in 2019. The concluding symposium provides insight into the research results and invites to a get-together.
Between Risk and Security: Shaping the Digital Transformation
February 15, 2024
What are the potential risks of digital change, especially artificial intelligence? How much security is even achievable? These questions are currently occupying scientists and the public with new urgency. The ZKM | Center for Art and Media, together with three universities - the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), the University of Mannheim and the University of Tübingen - invites you to join the conversation.
