The event will take place from 10:00–11:15 a.m. in the Audimax of the University of Tübingen. Please find the <strong>abstract</strong> of the talk below for a preview of the presentation:</p><p class="align-justify">"This keynote speech begins by recognising that video games are now fully grounded as essential aesthetic and cultural objects. While video game aesthetics have pervaded global media and entered the stream of neoliberal consumption, they cannot be dismissed as mere trends. Instead, they must be understood as era-defining markers of visual and experiential culture for players and observers alike.</p><p class="align-justify">While scholars frequently examine the aesthetics of play and gameplay experience, we rarely consider how these aesthetics manifest within physical spaces, particularly the classroom. Pedagogical spaces are often designed for purely practical purposes, overlooking their visual and affective dimensions. Drawing on international teaching experiences, this talk argues that the aesthetic feeling of a learning space deserves serious critical attention. By shifting our focus from high-intensity excitement to a “cozy,” safe, and authentic environment, we can prioritize genuine human connection over rigid institutional demands.</p><p class="align-justify">Building on Parsayi and Atkinson’s (2021) definition of video game “presence,” this presentation explores how ludic environments help students feel genuinely present and included. Ultimately, in an era where AI tools are increasingly ubiquitous for both instructors and students, playing and discussing video games together in a physical space emerges as one of the few remaining strategies that explicitly maximises human connection and protects the core of authentic education."</p><p class="align-justify">The <a href="https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/258278" target="_blank">keynote</a><a href="https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/296040" target="_blank"></a>is organised by the International Center for Ethics in the Sciences and Humanities (IZEW) at the University of Tübingen and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as part of the international workshop “<a href="https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/296040" target="_blank">Playful Media and Sustainable Futures</a>.” The event is supported by Seed Funding for Collaborative Projects between the two partner universities.</p>]]></content:encoded><category>IZEW</category><category>IZEW-Kultur</category><category>IZEW-Veranstaltungen</category><category>IZEW-Archiv</category><category>Archiv-Pressemitteilungen</category></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">news-131712</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 May 2026 11:05:33 +0200</pubDate><title>Human Writing Pratices in the Age of Artificial Intelligence</title><link>https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/events/newsfullview-news/article/human-writing-pratices-in-the-age-of-artificial-intelligence/</link><description>Writing and academic identity</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="align-justify">On May 18, staff member <a href="/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/team/jacqueline-bellon/">Jacqueline Bellon</a> will host a workshop titled “Personal Writing and Academic Identity” at the Schader Foundation in Darmstadt as part of the series “Human Writing in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.” The workshop will include a presentation on the challenges of academic identity and integrity when writing with and without LLMs or other generative and research-related AI tools.</p><p class="align-justify">The workshop will focus on real-world examples—including a long list of retracted AI-generated articles and structural issues within the academic system— followed by exercises from the project on “AI Tools in Higher Education,” including the evaluation of two term papers synthetically generated using different tools such as StudyTexter and Claude based on a list of criteria, to then ask the question of how we as researchers actually want to write ourselves:</p><p>Is a personal writing approach necessary for academic identity?

It owes its existence to the active participation of all those who use and develop it. However, the increasing appropriation of the internet by a small number of market-dominating companies is in full swing.<br><br>In view of this development, there are growing calls to restore the internet to its original character as a ‘commons’. How can users gain real freedom of choice about which information, services and products they want to use or contribute themselves? How important are demands for ‘digital sovereignty’, ‘public digital infrastructure’ or ‘basic digital services’? How can we address the challenge that technical infrastructure and access – servers, networks and platforms – are often controlled by the private sector, meaning that commercial logic determines many investments, innovations, forms of access and possibilities for use?<br><br><strong>Panel guests:</strong><br>Dr. Theresa Züger, Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society<br>Andreas Baur, University of Tübingen and Critical Infrastructure Lab Amsterdam<br>Jürgen Müller, Head of the Policy and Digitalisation Department at the FFederal Ministry for Education, Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth, Berlin<br>Moderator: Prof. Dr. Alexander Filipović, Professor of Social Ethics, Faculty of Catholic Theology, University of Vienna<br><br>The event is the public part of the 2026 Berlin Workshop Discussion of the ‘Working Group on Christian Social Ethics’ at German-speaking universities, which is dedicating this year's symposium to the topic of ‘Social Ethics of the Commons’.<br><br><i><strong>The event is open to the public and free of charge, but registration is required:</strong></i><a href="https://www.katholische-akademie-berlin.de/veranstaltung/internet-of-commons-wege-zu-einem-gemeinwohlorientierten-internet/#event-register" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://www.katholische-akademie-berlin.de/veranstaltung/internet-of-commons-wege-zu-einem-gemeinwohlorientierten-internet/#event-register</a></p>]]></content:encoded><category>IZEW</category><category>IZEW-Veranstaltungen</category><category>IZEW-Archiv</category><category>Archiv-Pressemitteilungen</category></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">news-123327</guid><pubDate>Wed, 17 Sep 2025 09:53:14 +0200</pubDate><title>Interdisciplinary Workshop on &quot;Aligning AI with Society”</title><link>https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/events/newsfullview-news/article/interdisciplinary-workshop-on-aligning-ai-with-society/</link><description>September 25-26, 2025 (UNC-Chapel Hill)</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="align-justify">The IZEW, in collaboration with the Computer Science Department of UNC-Chapel Hill, is organizing an interdisciplinary and transatlantic workshop from September 25-26, 2025, on the topic of Aligning AI with Society on site at the campus of UNC-Chapel Hill.</p><p class="align-justify">The hybrid workshop brings together researchers from both UNC-Chapel Hill and University of Tübingen across the fields of computer science and humanities to discuss interdisciplinary perspectives and approaches regarding the topic of aligning AI with society.</p><p class="align-justify">By providing a forum for important questions about the challenges and opportunities of AI systems in context of their sociotechnical impact with researchers in an interdisciplinary and international environment, we are looking forward to foster conversation across the domains on each other’s research and languages.</p><p class="align-justify">We are especially looking forward to hearing from our three keynote speakers who will offer insights into the topic from their perspectives:<br>Dr. Simon David Hirsbrunner, IZEW, University of Tübingen<br>Dr. Neil S.

The conference will address these relevant topics from a range of diverse disciplines and perspectives.</p><p class="align-justify">As part of the long-standing transatlantic partnership between the two universities, in which IZEW has significantly contributed to the dialogue on ethical and societal implications of AI, data sciences, and digitalization in recent years, eight researchers from Tübingen will travel to the USA to attend the conference in Chapel Hill. In addition to IZEW researchers Andreas Baur, Prof. Dr. Jessica Heesen, Jana Hecktor, and Lisa Koeritz, Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Bernd Heinrich and Dr. Tommaso Fia from the Faculty of Law, Prof. Dr. Tanja Thomas from the Institute of Media Studies, and Hüseyin Ates, former guest researcher at the Faculty of Law, will participate in the conference.</p><p class="align-justify">Researchers from various institutes at UNC will also be involved, including the Center for Information, Technology, and Public Life, the Department of Sociology, the School of Data Science and Society, the School of Law, the Hussman School of Journalism and Media, the School of Information and Library Science, and the Center for Media Law and Policy. This multitude of disciplinary perspectives, arising from the profiles of the researchers and encompassing fields such as philosophy, media ethics, gender studies, governance, law, and computer science, provides the foundation for a productive interdisciplinary dialogue on current challenges and research gaps related to AI regulation. Furthermore, the transatlantic exchange during this conference will offer valuable insights into existing transatlantic differences regarding AI regulation.</p><p class="align-justify">To conclude the first day of the conference on Thursday evening, March 27, 2025, Reggie Townsend, Vice President of Data Ethics at the US software company SAS from North Carolina, will deliver a keynote, bringing together the industrial and regulatory perspectives.</p>]]></content:encoded><category>IZEW</category><category>IZEW-Kultur</category><category>IZEW-Veranstaltungen</category><category>IZEW-Archiv</category><category>Archiv-Pressemitteilungen</category></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">news-115947</guid><pubDate>Mon, 17 Feb 2025 13:05:30 +0100</pubDate><title>Resilience of water supply system </title><link>https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/events/newsfullview-news/article/resilience-of-water-supply-system/</link><description>Socio-technical perspectives on the topic of water supply </description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="align-justify"><strong>Resilience strategies and risk management in the water supply 18 - March 19, 2025, online with </strong><a href="/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/team/jonathan-luebke/"><strong>Jonathan Lübke&nbsp;</strong></a><br>Securing the #water supply today and for future generations is a central social task.

The following questions may serve as a starting point for discussion but are not exhaustive:<br><br>How does the use of (generative) AI transform scientific knowledge production and teaching, and what philosophical reflections on foundational concepts, methods, and frameworks are necessitated by these transformations?<br><br>What implicit or explicit conceptions of humans and machines underpin the research, development, and application of AI?<br><br>How can synthetic outputs such as text, video, image, and audio be situated within the broader context of changes in public and academic reasoning from a philosophy of science perspective?<br><br>What interdisciplinary approaches (e.g., involving linguistics, semiotics, philosophy of language, epistemology, philosophy of science, technology assessment, philosophy of technology, futures studies, media studies, education sciences, and others) are most promising for addressing these questions?<br><br>What ethical implications are inherent in these developments and the corresponding philosophical reflections?<br><br><strong>Deadline </strong>for presentation proposals is <strong>February, 28th</strong>.

She will present her dissertation in the last round of the award process with fellow nominees on 1 July 2024 in Berlin.<br><br> Lauras dissertation “Diversity, Technology, Power: An American Black Feminist Approach to Studying and Designing Diversity in Relation to Contemporary Technologies” was completed successfully on 6 December 2023 (magna cum laude).<br><br> The dissertation critically examines diversity concepts and norms that are applied in computer science and technology development. Due to well-known problems with discrimination through artificial intelligence and other technologies, diversity is increasingly being incorporated into technology development. This sounds good at first, but is this approach always beneficial? Drawing on Black Feminist theory, the dissertation criticizes the fact that computer science uses binary and flat concepts of diversity (e.g. male vs. female). Cases such as facial recognition, personalization and recommendation systems, and the design of a European platform show that an unreflective approach to diversity can promote rather than minimize discrimination. The dissertation presents ways in which diversity can be (historically) contextualized and incorporated into technology development in a reflective manner. It contains recommendations for computer scientists, but is also relevant for policymakers and users of technology.<br><br> Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Astrid Franke, American Studies Department at University of Tübingen; Prof. Dr. Daniel Gatica-Perez, Social Computing Group at IDIAP, EPFL in Switzerland</p>]]></content:encoded><category>IZEW</category><category>IZEW-Veranstaltungen</category><category>IZEW-Archiv</category><category>Archiv-Pressemitteilungen</category></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">news-107673</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Jun 2024 14:20:21 +0200</pubDate><title>Presentation of the KIM study at the founding of the “Inclusive Disaster Management Initiative” </title><link>https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/events/newsfullview-news/article/presentation-of-the-kim-study-at-the-founding-of-the-inclusive-disaster-management-initiative/</link><description>Friedrich Gabel presented the results of the KIM study.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>On Monday, 3 June, the “Inclusive Disaster Management Initiative” was founded in Stuttgart under the patronage of Thomas Strobl, Minister of the Interior, Digitalization and Communities.

These challenges include algorithmic bias and discrimination, profit-driven innovation, and technology imaginaries around convenience, optimization, and neutrality. The works of Black feminists and critical race theorists as well as decolonial and Global South scholars and activists render visible the interlockings of societal, economic, cultural, and political injustice in the design, production, and distribution of technology. In thinking about the future and its daunting challenges, including the transformation of work, climate change, migration, and overall precarity, what should be the role of technology? What do technological futures look like from a social justice perspective?<br><br> The Tübingen Symposium will bring together critiques of unsettling trajectories as well as visions for alternative pathways. We will question the canonical values in technology creation – scale, efficiency, and (big) data aggregation – while also exploring diverse and potentially competing social justice concepts. The Tübingen Symposium will give invited speakers the opportunity to connect and share views on the topics of the symposium.

According to recent forecasts, in 2025, the digital economy will multiply by 10 the volume of data now generated. While, on the one hand, this widespread use of data enables us to create more efficient and effective products and services, and fuel economic growth, on the other hand, this vast potential has created a new range of ethical challenges.<br> The dark side of data innovation is not only the result of uncontrolled data trading networks, which represent a huge risk to the privacy of individuals, allowing for misuse, but also emerges from numerous well-intentioned service providers who do not take basic measures to limit or protect sensitive data. Strong data protection, privacy-aware data management, transparent online services, and fair data trading approaches are the crucial aspects to be inherent to the EU data market.<br> Innovators, researchers and policy makers are asked to work together to ensure great safety and trust as foundations of both a responsible data economy and responsible innovation.<br> If you are active in Big Data research, policy or industry and are wondering how best to deal with ethical challenges, also in view of the rise of Artificial Intelligence, this event will make you aware of the most recent discussions about ethical principles and practical guidelines.<br> This event, supported by the Big Data Value PPP, is organized by five EU-funded research projects focused on privacy protection technologies, transparency, legal compliance: e-SIDES, MyHealthMyData, SODA, SPECIAL, WeNet.</p><p class="align-justify">Participation is free.

Together with representatives from political education, trade unions and civil society initiatives, we will discuss the consequences of the current shift to the right for urban policy debates and how to deal with right-wing positions in everyday life.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="align-justify">Right-wing protest movements and recent election results show that the current shift to the right can be observed both in rural areas and in cities. The research project "Populism, Democracy, City" (PODESTA) at the Universities of Tübingen and Jena is dedicated to the urban level. It follows the assumption that current successes of the right are to be understood against the background of a crisis of democracy. On the one hand, deficits in political participation - for example in large-scale construction projects or in housing and transport policy - are thus addressed in the city, which can be appropriated for right-wing populist elite criticism. On the other hand, the diversity of different lifestyles brings with it conflicts over urban coexistence, which can turn into xenophobic resentments with right-wing offers of interpretation. The research project investigates such conflict situations in Stuttgart and Leipzig.<br><br> Within the framework of the conference organized jointly with the citizens' project Die AnStifter, previous research results will be presented and commented on by civil society actors. The central concern is to enter into dialogue with the citizens of Stuttgart. After all, it is civil society initiatives in particular that advocate more participation, social justice and tolerance in the city. They are also called upon to develop answers to the current rise of the right.<br> Together with representatives from political education, trade unions and civil society initiatives, the following questions will be discussed: What consequences does the current shift to the right have for urban policy debates? How can right-wing positions be dealt with in everyday life? How can the demand for a good life in the city be met?<br><br> With: Tom Adler (Die Linke und Bündnis Recht auf Wohnen), Jan Bleckert (trainer die Stammtischkämpfer*innen, Verdi Fils-Neckar-Alb), Peter Erben (citizens' initiative Neckartor), Peter Grohmann (Die AnStifter), Katharina Hajek (political scientist at the University of Koblenz-Landau), Friederike Hartl (education officer Stadtjugendring Stuttgart), Joachim Stein (Weissenburg Centre LSBTTIQ),<br><br> Sat, 16 November 10:00 - 16:30, Foyer "Hotel Silber" (Dorotheenstraße 10, Stuttgart)<br><br> The complete conference programme can be downloaded from the following link:<br><a href="http://podesta-projekt.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Poster_PoDeSta_3.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">podesta-projekt.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Poster_PoDeSta_3.pdf</a><br><br><br> Admission free.<br> Please register at: gisela.mackenroth@izew.uni-tuebingen.de<br><br> Organized by the AnStifters and the research project PODESTA<br> (IZEW, University of Tübingen)<br> www.podesta-projekt.de<br> www.die-anstifter.de</p>]]></content:encoded><category>Termine allgemein</category><category>IZEW</category><category>IZEW-Bildung</category><category>IZEW-Kultur</category><category>IZEW-Veranstaltungen</category><category>IZEW-Archiv</category></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">news-40683</guid><pubDate>Thu, 06 Jun 2019 11:19:20 +0200</pubDate><title>Call for Papers: Growing up and learning in supervised environments</title><link>https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/events/newsfullview-news/article/call-for-papers-growing-up-and-learning-in-supervised-environments/</link><description>Kalkscheune, Berlin / 21. und 22. November 2019: Annual conference of the &quot;Forum Privatheit und selbstbestimmtes Leben in der digitalen Welt&quot; (Forum Privacy and Self-Determined Living in the Digital World)</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="align-justify">The Forum Privatheit - selbstbestimmtes Leben in der digitalen Welt is organising an interdisciplinary conference on "Growing up and learning in supervised environments" in Berlin on 21 and 22 November 2019: Data Protection for Children, Learners and Educational Institutions". Digital technologies are increasingly shaping childhood and youth: from video surveillance in infancy to learning robots in kindergartens and learning assistants controlled by artificial intelligence for individual educational success. Digital media are used in particular for learning processes, knowledge transfer and information acquisition and are discussed under the buzzword of computer literacy. The applications, which are particularly used by children and adolescents, are not limited to the formal educational context, but also find their way into children's rooms on the basis of informal learning environments. However, little is said about privacy, surveillance and data protection issues in this sensitive and important area of society. The conference invites to inter- and transdisciplinary exchange beyond disciplines and scientific borders, to exchange with practitioners from educational work and to (socio-)political discussion.</p><p class="align-justify">The complete Call Papers can be found at <a href="https://www.forum-privatheit.de/jahreskonferenz/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://www.forum-privatheit.de/jahreskonferenz/</a>.

Social media and in particular Twitter are used by government bodies, civil society, activists, but also companies to promote gender equality. Examples of collective action that focus on the advancement of women’s and gender issues include the incredibly popular #MeToo initiative against sexual harassment in the United States, the relatable #YoTeCreo campaign in Spain, but also the #CzarnyProtest mobilization to push back against a proposed ban on abortion in Poland. Examples of top-down initiatives in support of gender justice include the UN campaign for IDEVAW #OrangetheWorld and the European Commission’s initiative #SayNoStopVAW. All of the above cases represents instances in which people claimed visibility by aggregating their voices and speaking up on a given issue. While in some cases more than in others, the overall impression emerging from these initiatives is that of a powerful show of horizontal democracy. However, the picture is probably not as clear-cut as it might look at first sight. Deeply rooted mechanisms of exclusion de facto prevent a large portion of the public from participating in these forms of collective action. Similarly, inequalities in the distribution of social media visibility seriously question the widespread assumption that anyone’s voice can actually be heard, as long as they tweet loud enough.&nbsp;<br><br> At the International Center for Ethics in the Sciences and Humanities, Tübingen, we will discuss the following and related questions: What are mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion in ICT-based collective actions? What is the actual visibility that these kind of actions can hope to achieve? Who are the most visible actors within their narrow context? What narratives do these actors voice? How do the actors’ narratives of solidarity and justice clash with feminist ideas about gender equality and justice? We encourage Master’s students and Ph.D. candidates to join our workshop. The goal of the workshop is to develop new thoughts about the topic at hand, gather inspiration for your own work, and connect with academics working on similar issues.&nbsp;<br><br> If you would like to contribute a 10-minute presentation, please send your abstract of 500 words to the organizers of the workshop by December 18, 2018. If you would like to attend the workshop merely as a participant, please register with the organizers by February 10, 2019.&nbsp;<br><br><strong>Organization:&nbsp;</strong><br> Ms. Laura Schelenz, University of Tübingen,&nbsp;<a href="#" data-mailto-token="ocknvq,ncwtc0uejgngpbBwpk/vwgdkpigp0fg" data-mailto-vector="2">laura.schelenz<span style="display:none">spam prevention</span>@uni-tuebingen.de</a><br> Mr. Tommaso Trillò, University of Lodz,&nbsp;<a href="#" data-mailto-token="ocknvq,vqoocuq0vtknnqBwpk0nqfb0rn" data-mailto-vector="2">tommaso.trillo<span style="display:none">spam prevention</span>@uni.lodz.pl</a><br><br><strong>Date and Place:&nbsp;</strong><br> February 18, 2019<br> Room 1.13 in Wilhelmstraße 19, 72074 Tübingen<br><br><strong>Preliminary Program:</strong><br> 10:00 Welcome and warm up&nbsp;<br> 11:00 Lecture by Tommaso Trillò: “Can the Subaltern Tweet?

It welcomes contributions from all disciplines working on the subject, including Philosophy, Sociology, Ethnology, Political Science, Development Studies, Engineering, Information Science, Library Science, Media Studies, Economics, and Geosciences.</p><p class="align-justify">Contributions to the&nbsp;TATuP&nbsp;thematic issue 2/2019 may address (but are not limited to) questions such as:</p><ul><li><p class="align-justify">What are the motivations behind ICT export and digitalisation programmes?</p></li><li><p class="align-justify">Who is excluded from ICT use? Which divides (e.g. gender, rural/urban,</p><p class="align-justify">educational) persist and are potentially even reinforced by ICT?</p></li><li class="align-justify">How do understandings of privacy and access to information differ between cultures?

Nach dem Skandal um den Filmproduzenten Harvey Weinstein wurden Frauen weltweit aufgefordert, ihre Erfahrungen mit sexueller und sexualisierter Gewalt öffentlich zu machen. Diese Debatte ist ein wichtiges Symptom für sich verändernde Geschlechterverhältnisse – eine Veränderung, der mit Erleichterung und Unterstützung, aber auch mit Angst und Verachtung begegnet wird.<br> Worum also geht es bei der Genderforschung?

</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One thing is clear: There is no such thing as absolute security in cyberspace – but not to worry about security is also not a solution. In the meantime, there is a broad legal, technical and also political scope of possibilities; this became clear once again on 21 June 2018 at the <a href="http://igm-nuernberg.de/component/content/article/36-veranstaltungen/350-wie-viel-sicherheit-wollen-und-brauchen-wir.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Nuremberg Technology Dialogue</a> at the Home Ministry.

Subsequently, he highlighted the aspect of security from a political and ethical points of view and pointed out that ‘more security’ can also lead to ‘less freedom, equality and privacy’ and that security ultimately needs a discussion of values that society must face.</p>]]></content:encoded><category>IZEW</category><category>IZEW-Sicherheitsethik</category><category>IZEW-Kultur</category><category>IZEW-Veranstaltungen</category><category>IZEW-Archiv</category><category>Archiv-Pressemitteilungen</category></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">news-22667</guid><pubDate>Fri, 29 Jun 2018 13:09:28 +0200</pubDate><title>Jessica Heesen speaks at MCIR</title><link>https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/research/centers-and-institutes/international-center-for-ethics-in-the-sciences-and-humanities/the-izew/events/newsfullview-news/article/jessica-heesen-speaks-at-mcir/</link><description>&quot;Forum Privatheit&quot; and the Munich Center for Internet Research hold a public conference on data and algorithms &quot;Mehr Daten, bessere Algorithmen: Chancen und Risiken der Preissetzung in der digitalen Welt!&quot;.</description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The amount and significance of data increases constantly.
