Publieke Waarden

Onderwijs- en onderzoeksinstellingen werken hard om studenten en medewerkers een goede en veilige digitale omgeving te bieden. Daarbij worden we geconfronteerd met dilemma’s: hoe borgen we waarden als rechtvaardigheid, autonomie en menselijkheid, terwijl aan de andere kant de afhankelijkheid van dominante commerciële partijen groeit? De community publieke waarden gaat over het samen verkennen van deze dilemma’s, het vormen van visie en het delen van praktische tools en hulpmiddelen.
