Digitalization for sustainability transformations
How can digitalisation serve the sustainability transformation? Which governmental interventions are needed? Prof. Dr. Angela Oels was local host of a 3-day international and interdisciplinary conference that addressed these questions. From 20-22 September 2023, more than 40 colleagues from political science, science & technology studies, geography, media studies, economics, human-computer interaction and computer sciences came to the Zentrum für Klimaresilienz // Centre for Climate Resilience at the University of Augsburg in Germany to present papers.
Some highlights for you:
The conference was a milestone in community building as too many people work in isolation and don’t talk to each other across disciplines. We will follow up with a special issue. Hosts and sponsors of this conference were the Zentrum für Klimaresilienz // Centre for Climate Resilience at the University of Augsburg, the German Political Science Association (DVPW), the Weizenbaum-Institut for the Networked Society and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH.
