About the Research Conferences

Technology is transforming our world at an unprecedented pace, shaping societies, economies, and cultures in ways that demand critical examination. The Digital Humanism Interdisciplinary Science and Research Conference provides a platform for interdisciplinary dialogue on the profound impact of digitization, exploring both its promises and risks.

We define Digital Humanism as an approach that describes, analyzes, and, most importantly, influences the complex interplay between technology and humankind—striving for a better society while fully respecting universal human rights. Addressing the challenges of the digital age requires collaboration across disciplines, from computer science to the humanities, to ensure technological advancements align with human values and social well-being.

This conference invites contributions from diverse perspectives, including governance and regulation of AI, privacy and digital rights, participatory approaches, the role of tech monopolies, human-centered AI, and the environmental impact of digitization. We welcome a wide range of research methodologies, from theoretical reflections to empirical studies, fostering a shared understanding that bridges technical and societal viewpoints.
