Blueprints for a good digital society
The aim of the Digital Good Network is to advance understanding of what a good digital society looks like and how we get there.
For the fourth and final round of the Digital Good Research Fund, researchers will produce a ‘blueprint’ and a briefing document about what a particular aspect of social life or societal institution looks like in a good digital society, and how we achieve it.
From this call, we funded 15 projects, each looking at a different aspect of social life or societal institution.
