Strengthening digital opinion-forming with simulations

Digital literacy is a simulation for digital literacy. Dezentrum believes that promoting digital literacy among citizens is the key to addressing challenges such as disinformation, hate speech and filter bubbles.

DigitalLabor

A shared vision of digital Switzerland 2030

Digitalization has been here for a long time. You can neither vote it out nor ignore it. But what does a digitalization that puts society at the centre look like? With the DigitalLabor, we travelled across Switzerland with the question: (How) do you want to digitize Switzerland?

Digitalsalat Podcast

Digitalization can and will change all of our lives profoundly. The only question that remains is how. In our podcast "Digitalsalat" we try to answer this question and come up with not only probable but also desirable answers. On an ongoing basis, we get exciting guests in front of the microphone and dive with them into a wide variety of topics at the intersection of technology and society. The podcast is a collaboration between Dezentrum and Mercator Foundation Switzerland.
