How sustainable is the production and use of digital technologies actually? What are the environmental and social consequences of digitalisation and how can the right to repair help to curb it? What are the interests behind the export of digital technologies to African countries? And to what extent do digital technologies change social norms, cultural traditions and the distribution of power within societies? In a cozy setting, experts and audiences will discuss urgent questions related to digital change in a global context. The event is part of the W3 series "Technopolitics - Global Justice in the Age of the Digital".
