Digital Humanism Conference 2026

#DigHum2026 connects everyone interested in options for a good digital future and life. In conversation across research and policy, with experts and enthusiasts, it will be discussing technology through the lens of human values and democratic principles. Challenging the digital, empowering the human.

The conference positions Digital Humanism within current global power shifts and debates on technological governance by asking how digital technologies reshape political agency, democratic institutions, and international relations. How can they be steered in line with human-centred values?

Bringing together leading thinkers from academia, policy, industry, and civil society, the conference explores how democracy can be reconfigured through technology: not as a purely technical challenge, but as a societal project grounded in human rights, inclusion, equality, diversity, and environmental responsibility.
